Snapshots
The Volume screen allows you to schedule and take snapshots. You can visualize a snapshot as a frozen image of a volume at the time you take the snapshot. Snapshots are typically used for backups, during which time the original volume can continue to operate normally. As primary storage becomes larger, offline backups tend to become increasingly difficult as backup time increases beyond offline hours. Snapshots allow backups to occur without the need to take your systems offline.
Snapshots also can be used as temporary backups. For example, if a file on the NAS device becomes infected with a virus, the uninfected file can be restored from a prior snapshot taken before the attack.
