Installing and Activating GoodSync on Synology NAS

GoodSync Server for Synology NAS allows you to install GoodSync directly on your Synology for fast, efficient replication: 

• you do not need a separate computer to get to files on the NAS via SMB. 
• supports block-level delta copy. 
• upload and download are much faster as there is no SMB overhead.
