Copy FSx across Account and across Region

Question

Hi Team,
I need to move and sync a folder from FSx storage from AWS Account 1 AWS Regions A, to FSx AWS Account 2 AWS Regions B. How should I set up DataSync for this transfer? If DataSync is not suitable for this task what other AWS services can I use?

Note that since April 2021 you can also use cross-Region and cross-account backup support to copy backups across AWS Regions to implement cross-Region business continuity, and across AWS accounts to protect their backups from accidental user activity, account compromises, and ransomware.
