Synology Cloud Station Backup
Synology Cloud Station Backup is a file synchronization and backup utility for macOS that connects your Mac to a Synology NAS (Network Attached Storage) device on your local network. It allows users to back up files and folders to their NAS, sync data across multiple Macs, and maintain automatic versioning and recovery points. The app is primarily aimed at home and small-office users who own Synology NAS hardware and want an easy-to-use backup solution without relying on cloud services or manual file transfers.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find recent public information about Synology Cloud Station Backup's architecture or native Apple Silicon support status. Given that this is a utility for connecting to Synology NAS hardware, your best next step is to contact Synology directly or check your Synology account's support portal to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is available or planned. Since Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), if your current copy is Intel-only, you should confirm the timeline for a native update sooner rather than later. Synology typically maintains active driver and utility support for their product ecosystem, so a native version may already exist or be under development — the support team can give you the definitive answer.
