Hi Fabiobox, let's jump right into this!
Just to make sure we're on the same page, would you mind clarifying what you mean when you say that the renderings are on the external hard drive, but it's synced as if it was inside your computer?
Do you use aliases in order to achieve that? As for the computers on the same network, using their own local folder, can you let me know more about this set-up, and if this folder would contain the same files?
I’d just like to mention that NAS currently isn’t a supported location for the Dropbox folder. This is due to it generally not working well in being able to sync changes made to the files within the account.
Have you taken a look into our external backup feature? Do you think that would fit your needs?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
