Is there a way to do an automated backup from Dropbox to LaCie d2 Professional?
Hey everyone,
In our office, we use Dropbox to save all our files, keeping everything up to date since we work on a project basis. Recently, we decided to enhance file security, so we purchased a LaCie d2 Professional 14TB storage device. Can anyone guide us on how to set up an automated backup from Dropbox to the LaCie d2 Professional maybe like a weekly or certain period of time, Appreciate it !!
Thanks

That's not something Dropbox does. You'd need to set up a manual copy process, either using command line/terminal commands and the scheduling features in your OS, or a third-party application meant for copying/syncing/backing up files.
Another option would be to purchase a NAS that has its own Dropbox app (created by the NAS developer) to sync your Dropbox content to the NAS automatically.
