File Analysys for Cloud NAS saving

We’re often asked how much space can be saved on file servers by using Wasabi Cloud NAS with Space Reclamation.

To help answer that, I created a small PowerShell script that generates a CSV file. The output can then be filtered by a chosen date range to show the potential savings over that period.

This video walks you through how to run the script and how to analyze the output.

If you’d like a copy of the script, please email neale@wasabi.com

AWS S3 CLI Install and Setup

This demo walks through the installation and configuration of the AWS S3 CLI to enable command-line access to Wasabi. Many customers request CLI access to move data, automate workflows, or configure advanced Wasabi features. Since Wasabi is fully S3-compatible, the AWS CLI can be easily configured to interact directly with Wasabi storage for efficient data management and automation.

Wasabi and Synology ActiveProtect

Synology recently provided me with a DP320 ActiveProtect backup appliance to evaluate its functionality, specifically its backup copy capability to Wasabi.

In this video, I take a look at the hardware, walk through the initial setup, connect it to Wasabi, and running through various backup and restore scenarios to assess performance and usability.

Rclone to copy data – and schedule

This is a demo of using Rclone to copy data from another providers S3 bucket to Wasabi (or visa versa) I often get asked if there was a way to have a scheduled copy of data from one source to another.

(if over 50TB Wasabi has Wasabi Cloud Sync Manager which is a Wasabi Service that moved data into Wasabi from another provider)
