# QNAP Applications With Wasabi

Wasabi is validated for use with multiple [QNAP](https://www.qnap.com/en-us/) applications. More information on how Wasabi works with QNAP applications can be found [here](https://wasabi.com/qnap/). These applications work in conjunction with the QNAP NAS device to provide backup, remote mount, and extended storage capacity towards Wasabi. Click on each application listed below, to review the steps to set them up with Wasabi.

### **Hybrid Backup Sync (HBS3)**

Wasabi is certified for use with [QNAP's Hybrid Backup Sync (HBS3) solution](https://www.qnap.com/solution/hbs3/en/). HBS3 is a NAS backup solution with data deduplication features that also backs up NAS data to cloud storage.

In our testing we have used version 3.0.190923 of the HBS3 application.

1. Within the HBS 3 app, click on Storage Spaces and then Create to add Wasabi as a Storage destination.

### **HybridMount**

Wasabi is certified for use with [QNAP's HybridMount](https://www.qnap.com/solution/hybridmount/en/) application. HybridMount is used to integrate NAS with cloud services by and enables low-latency access to the cloud with local caching. A NAS with limited capacity can mount cloud storage to expand NAS storage capacity.

In our testing we have used version 1.0.1697 of the HybridMount application.

1. Click on the HybridMount app icon on your QNAP NAS Dashboard to initialize the application.
