Sync NAS to Local USB

Thread needs solution

I just upgraded from ATI 2014 after installing a new hard drive.  My back ups from ATI 2014 were all corrupt, so I have to start fresh.  I have an NAS with all my media files on it and I previously had the NAS sync to a local usb disk on my PC.  I am trying to do that in 2016 and am able to set up the NAS to sync, but am not being given the option to select the destination for the sync.  Where do I do that in 2016?

 

Thanks in advance!

You cannot do this with ATI 2016. Look for software like SyncbackSE, or GoodSync to manage this synching. I do use Syncback SE and I find it very convenient. GoodSync is as powerful, and maybe a tad easier to use.

Ditto to Pat.  Sync in Acronis 2015/2016 is only to the Cloud first and then across systems after that.  I also use allwaysync (free version is sufficient for most people).

I also just use robocopy scripts too as robocopy is built into Windows and basically it's a simple command that you can write in notepad and then save the notepad file from .txt to .bat and run it when you want. 

Here is a very brief, yet effective robocopy example here:
