I am using my WD EX4 for storage and another one as back-up using “Remote back-up”.
This was working fine, but just realized today it stopped working about a week ago!!!
I believe this is when the firmware update was done. (Good thing I realized this now and not after I really needed to recover!!! - would have been a disaster!)
Backup Status | Backup complete on Friday, 2014 June 13, 5:05:06 PM |
Schedule | 00:00 Daily |
I suspect it might be because it seems WD changed the software and the option 00:00 is no longer available and only have 01:00… WD users shodul have been informed
Only way to fix it is to delete all back-up jobs previously set-up and recreate it. **bleep**.
The bigger problem is that now the back-up seems to create a folder WUL243nnnnnn_remote_backup and created the back-up inside that folder instead of just backing-up the files in the folder specified. How on earth can this be ??
This is a big mess and defeats the purpose completely.
There are now two options: Backup and Syncronize - but no (i) to explain the difference and it seems to make no difference.
Pulling my hair out now!
Seriously guys!!! ???
