# How to Sync 2 Radarr or Sonarr with each other
<div class="annotate" markdown>
In this guide I will try to explain how you can sync two (or more) Radarr/Sonarr instances with each other.
I'm going to show two different options on how you can setup your sync with two Radarr/Sonarr instances.

In this example I'm going to use two Radarr instances (The basics is the same for Sonarr).
- `Radarr 1` = My main 4K/2160p (UHD) Radarr.
- `Radarr 2` = My 1080p Radarr that I've setup for a streaming optimized quality profile.[^1]

- {++Radarr 2++} = My 1080p Radarr that I've setup for a streaming optimized quality profile. [^1]
This option is best used if you want a 1:1 copy of your Radarr/Sonarr instances
