Ah nice! I did not know that rsync has a ‘delete option’. I guess what I could do with QNAP HBS is to set up multiple backup jobs: Copy over everything every day, while retaining all files and trigger the mirror option manually when space becomes an issue. Thanks!! 😊

Thanks for the suggestions. Indeed this would make things safer. However, I forgot to mention that the external drive is an integrated storage pool on the NAS at work, so I can’t really iterate manually between the drives. :/
