Synology Hyper Backup — Scheduled NAS Backups with Versioning and Encryption

Requires DSM 7.0 or later. Hyper Backup supports S3-compatible storage natively.

1. Install Hyper Backup

Open Package Center on your Synology DSM and install Hyper Backup if not already present.

2. Get your S3 credentials

Log in to your HummingTribe dashboard → S3 Storage tab. Copy your Access Key ID and Secret Access Key.

3. Create a new backup task

Open Hyper Backup → click the + button → Data backup task → S3 Storage. On the next screen select Custom S3 Compatible Server from the provider dropdown.

4. Enter connection details

Server address: storage.hummingtribe.comAccess key: your-access-key-idSecret key: your-secret-access-keyBucket name: your-bucket-name

Click Next — Hyper Backup will connect and list available folders in your bucket.

5. Select folders, schedule, and encryption

Choose the shared folders and applications to back up. Set a backup schedule (daily recommended). Enable Client-side encryption and set a strong password — this encrypts your data before it leaves your NAS. Complete the wizard and run the first backup immediately to verify.
