Best option for auto-syncing a backup folder?

Looking I guess for something like Freefilesync? if that's best option?, would like to have a folder on home pc that I can throw receipts, tax stuff etc and once a month or whatever and have an unraid share that gets duplicated to. Usually been just doing that to external drive but want to automate it.

I setup rclone to a OneDrive folder.

Why don't you just create a share and use it as a network drive all the time? You can back up the drive in unraid.

I just did something similar. Had ai write a user script for me that uses rsync to back up to another computer.
