You can see the status of the mounted Hybrid Share folder and its storage information on Control Panel > Shared Folder.
Monitor Storage Usage and Folder Status
To monitor storage usage:
Click on the icon next to the mounted folder to view its local and cloud storage information:
- Folder Quota shows how much storage capacity is allocated from your C2 Storage plan to the corresponding Hybrid Share folder.
- Folder Usage shows the current usage of the corresponding Hybrid Share folder.
- Reserved Local Cache Size shows how much of the volume's capacity is reserved for the local cache to use.
- Local Cache Usage shows the current usage of the local cache.
- Upload Queue shows the size of the data in the local cache not yet uploaded to the Hybrid Share folder.
- Upload Status shows the speed of the data in the local cache being uploaded to the Hybrid Share folder.
Note:
After initializing the Hybrid Share folder, you can mount it on one or multiple Synology NAS devices to store and share data. Once the Hybrid Share folder is successfully mounted, it will start downloading data to the local cache. Please note the following information:
- Syncing: Hybrid Share's change-tracking mechanism ensures that modified data in the mounted folder are uploaded to the corresponding Hybrid Share folder on C2 Storage, and from there, synced to all the Synology NAS devices mounted with the same Hybrid Share folder.
- Evicting: Data stored in the local cache are released when local cache usage is high or has reached the predefined threshold capacity. In this situation, write operations to the mounted folder will be throttled to prevent the volume from becoming full. You can increase the volume size or wait for the least recently used (LRU) cached data to be released.
