Anyone else using RTR with 2 locations

Posted by: Tylercoupe on 15 September 2011

I have 2 separate HDXs in two different homes about 120 miles apart.  I currently use a Qnap 559 pro II in each home.  With one share being the store and one share for hi Rez downloads.  I use the Qnap RTR(replication) service to sync the shares.  So when I rip a CD from the HDX in one home, it automatically replicates the rip in the other.  I have it set to only replicate the "MQ" folder and the high Rez folder.  It seems to work flawlessly... Anyone else doing this?  Ant thoughts from the Naim guys on copying rips directly into the MQ folder.   Since I only put HDX rips in there I have had no issues and it works... Maybe I shouldn't ask

Best to rip to store on NAS, then sync the MQ folder to a share at remote location. Share-to-share syncing is fine.

I haven't got a second HDX, but doing something similar to backup my QNAP 809 NAS and HDX with Rsync scripts to a remote RSync Server. I think the RTR service actually uses Rsync under the hood. I then have a backup of everything on the NAS held offsite.
