To set up syncing:
- Log in to your ReadyNAS.

Your default browser opens displaying the Google Drive page to authorize Google Drive to sync with the ReadyNAS. - Follow the directions on the page to authorize the ReadyNAS.
Note: If you do not already have a Google Drive, you will be guided through creating one. This requires logging in to, or creating, a Google account.
The Google Drive - Session window opens. - Enter a value in the Local Path field by browsing the ReadyNAS to the location you want to sync.
- Enter a value in the Cloud Storage Path field by browsing the ReadyNAS to the location you want to sync.
- Choose a value in the Sync Direction field (Bidirection, Download cloud storage changes only, or Upload local storage changes only).
- Click the Create button.
The Google Drive - Session window closes.
The ReadyNAS applies the settings to sync with your Google drive.
You can add and modify Google Drive session settings by clicking the Google Drive Settings button. You can modify bandwith settings (upload and download speeds), sync direction, and server-side encryption.
As of ReadyNAS OS 6.9.4, you can change the Download Sync interval in the Options tab under Settings. This value changes how often the ReadyNAS will check for updates against the cloud service. Increase this value in low-bandwidth environments or as needed. The minimum interval is 30 seconds.
