Hello all,
can someone please explain me what is the difference in HBS 3 between "One-way Sync Job" and a "Back-Up Job"?
Both times the data is copied from my NAS to the cloud?
I can set One-way Sync to e.g. Hourly, then it does the same thing?
Background of the question is that the back-up job always aborts, but the synch job works.
Thank you.

Re: Difference between a One-way Sync and Back-Up
i don't do the back-up job because of how it does it. it creates weird pathing which you can't change. this is why i use one way sync for doing my backups, because i can create the pathing i want.
either way it's creating a full copy of my stuff to another device, and that counts as a backup either way.
For restoring, i do a restore job (these are fine). I highly recommend you set the restore job to DISABLED when you are not using it. Just in case someone accidentally runs a restore job when not intended.

Re: Difference between a One-way Sync and Back-Up
Thank you for your answers.
Okay, I don't really need the button to restore everything.That can also be done manually, right?
Does it make a difference if, for example, my NAS is infected by a virus and all data is encrypted? Wouldn't the data in the cloud be encrypted in the same way when synching?
