Moving files to a NAS box on a Windows PC

I apologize if this is a stupid question but if I move several files around my NAS box, would the data go through my Microsoft Windows PC? What happens when I copy the files? I'm asking because I was always scared to do a cleanup on my NAS. I wasn't sure if the files take a long time to move.

How to backup an Amazon S3 bucket

Would anyone happen to know how to recover from an accidental deletion of an Amazon S3 bucket? One of our interns (clumsy them) clicked on the wrong button and deleted everything. There's a ton of data in there. Could we sync the entire bucket locally? Anyone have an idea?

I'm implementing a large server that's going to be used as a live NAS for several other servers. The server will have about 4 - 20 TB of useable space. It will be on RAID 10 for performance concerns but we need a backup solution (including off-site backup). Is there a way to backup that much data?
