Introduction
Starting from C22.12, the new functionality "Backup for Synology NAS" is introduced in Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud which will reduces operational costs by removing the requirement for the partner/end-customer to provide a dedicated server that will enable NAS backup.
To be able to back up a NAS, you should enable the offering items "Network-attached storages (NAS)" and/or "Network-attached storages (NAS) (included features)".

- The data from NAS shares is accessed locally instead of reading it over the network (via SMB), thus providing better performance:
