Learn how to backup your DobiProtect NAS device to Filebase.

What is Datadobi DobiProtect?

Datadobi DobiProtect is a suite of Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices used for storing and keeping local or onsite backups of data. NAS devices come in many sizes and configurations, both for home users and enterprise level data storage. While they are important pieces of disaster and data recovery plans, if something were to destroy or corrupt the NAS device, the data stored on it would be lost. Therefore, backing up your NAS device to a form of offsite, cloud storage is just as important to your disaster or data recovery plan.

DobiProtect is certified for use with Filebase. Read below for steps to configure your DobiProtect device for backups to Filebase.
