PropellerStudios Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 Hi guys. I'm wondering why I don't see my NAS as a target destination for backups. I have the NAS mounted using SMB in OSX Sierra. My NAS is a Synology running DSM6.1. Thanks a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidHertzberg Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 (edited) Page 85 of the Retrospect Mac 13 User's Guide has instructions on "To add a share as a backup location". However I believe you may first have to add the NAS as a Source (Retrospect Mac AFAIK needs any volume it deals with—even as a Destination— to be in the Sources list); this is covered on page 84 of the UG under "Adding a Server or NAS as a Source". Here is a short YouTube video, created by the head of Retrospect Tech Support, on "Adding NAS Source Volumes with Retrospect 10"; it shows adding an AFP source, but I'm sure you can adapt that to using an SMB name or address.
