GoodSync Server for QNAP NAS
GoodSync Server for QNAP NAS is installed directly on the NAS.
It serves files to GoodSync clients in a fast and efficient manner:
* you do not need a separate computer to get to files on NAS via SMB,
* block-level delta copy works properly,
* upload and download are much faster as there is no SMB overhead.
