A few months back I shared my switch from Synology over to UGREEN and I mentioned a “pro tip” to use rsync for file transfer. A viewer recently asked me to do a true step-by-step walkthrough, so in this video I show exactly how I move readable files from a Synology NAS to a UGREEN NAS using rsync—without ending up with data locked inside a proprietary backup format. I start on the UGREEN NAS by creating a shared folder that will receive the files, and I explain the permissions step so your user account can actually write to that destination. Then I call out the easy-to-miss part: you must enable the rsync backup service on the UGREEN side in Control Panel > File Service > rsync, and apply your account settings. After that, I switch to the Synology NAS and build the transfer task in Hyper Backup using an rsync-compatible server destination. The key takeaway is the backup type: for this kind of migration you want Single Version mode. If you choose Multiple Versions, your files land on the UGREEN in Hyper Backup’s proprietary format and they won’t be directly readable. I finish by running the task and verifying the folders and files on the UGREEN NAS so you can see the transfer worked end-to-end.
