Hello there!
Iam planning to buy a NAS system, due to the increasing need to backup my data (data, videos, photos, rpg stuff ecetera) locally and to distribute the data on my various devices in the network. Since I want to be secured for the next decades (
) I am planning to buy a DS416 NAS system. (Another reason is that I don't want to trust my personal data to some external cloud service)
Now, what does this have to do with Realm Works?
Currently the realm works folders are stored on a local drive - and I think officially RW does not support network drives. One reason seems to be that the database is per "computer" and would need to be imported.
I work with RW on two devices (desktop and laptop) therefore I will require the export/import step on each system, once the cloud subscription expires.
Therefore I wanted to ask: Is somebody using RW and a NAS system? If so, what is your use case and what limitations would occur? Does it work with a single device?
Would it be possible if just one computer stores the database on the NAS (e.g. the desktop) and when I use the laptop, I would "import" data to the local harddrive from the NAS?
Cheers and thanks for your thoughts!
