So.. I suck and don't use a Mac. Please don't hate me. I don't hate on em a bit.
Wife has a year old MacBook Pro and I'd like to find a better backup solution for her, preferably something pretty seamless via wifi on our home network.
From some reading around it seems to be hit or miss at best using something like the WD My Cloud to save Time Machine backups to.
Is there any other solution other than the Time Capsule/Router boxes Apple sells?
I have a Synology NAS on the network already with DSM 5, should I even be barking up that tree or just badger her(more) to use her external USB drive to back up her writing and art and such?
I don't mind spending a few bucks to make life easier for her but I want it to work correctly and reliably and I don't like the idea of replacing my router with a dedicated Apple router/time capsule.
Thoughts?
