Acronis backup folder on WDMyCloudEX2Ultra "could damage your PC"
Today I uploaded 380GB to my NAS through AcronisTrueImage. It is the main stuff of my PC stored on WDElements USB external disk and in OneDrive. I wanted a home copy of my OneDrive files. The upload took ca 15 hrs. When I tried to open the backup I had a file called "OneDrive-full-b1-s1-v1". I had the option to open and waited 30 minutes of opening process before I stopped the action. Then I got the warning that this file might damage my PC (a SurfacePro3). I have limited HD on my SurfacePro so my stuff is on WDElements 2TB external USB. A great deal of my stuff is complicated collections of image folders and files. I also tried to backup of a single folder with big collection of subfolders and images through Acronis. The backup resulted in folders without images. I now have MyCloudEx2Ultra "Public" drive as part of my PC network but I get the warning that Access to files on that drive could do harm to my PC All backups done through AcronisTrueImage. I thought I had followed rules. I have selected RAID1 option for the 2x WDred 4TB HDD on my NAS. Now I wonder if I should select iSCSI. What would be the advantage? I suppose I should delete the backups already done? What are the benefits of the Acronis backup system? Next I will try USB backup to NAS. How can I access single files on a big backup of multiple folder system on my NAS without downloading the whole drive as I undestand my Acronis upload is demanding?
