Backup a Network Attached Storage (NAS) Device

Thread needs solution

Currently I use Acronis True Image 2015 for PC and a Synology DS213j as the storage location for my backup. I need to add more storage for my PC and plan on using an additional NAS devide. Can Acronis backup my PC hard drive data and this NAS to the NAS that I am currently using? Thank you!

i Have had issues with True IMage 2014 backing up my Synology shares files. I can set up the backup but it fails when it runs.
If your second NAS is also a Synology, I would backup one Synology to the other using Synology backup services or Cloud Station, and do another PC based backup for your PC.
If your second NAS is not a Synology, but can be set up as an rsync server, you can backup your Synology to this rsync server, and your PC separately. This is what I was doing for a while, backing up my DS214Play to my Wd MyCloud (a hack is necessary to make the WD MyCloud accessible through rsync)... Until I completely gave up on the WD MyCloud and bought a new Synology to replace it :-)
