Can I backup a directory on one drive to another on the same LinkStation Pro?
I can see the source pulldown list, but destination target pulldown is blank.

Yes, just enable the "disk backup" options on the share folder options for that folder.

It's pointless doing this though. Keeping everything on a single units isn't a backup.
PM me for TFTP / Boot Images / Recovery files  LSRecovery.exe file.
Having network issues? Drop me an email: info@interwebsireland.com and we will get it fixed!

Have i helped you? Buy me a coffee as a thanks!

Backing up to the 2nd disk in the unit is ok, as if the bay fails, at least the data is save being replicated.   I should probably change to Raid rather than having the 2 drives which I mirror more manually.   

Thanks, the Disk Backup checkbox worked.   Didn't notice that earlier.

Thanks, Carl
