**Step 5:** Setup Backup type

We have 3 ways to take Backup to HI GIO S3 Storage

{% endstep %}

#### Step 6: Scheduling the Backup time

* Depending on the business backup plan, you can choose 2-way synchronization or 1-way synchronization (Upload Only) or 1-way synchronization (Download Only)
* To expand the storage space for the NAS device, we recommend you use the synchronization type (Upload Only). When deleting data on the NAS, the data on the Cloud will remain.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.higiocloud.vn/hi-gio-s3-storage/backup-data-from-nas-to-hi-gio-s3-service/backup-data-from-synology-nas-with-clousync.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
