Time Machine Nas

[vito]

Hello

I am in the market for a 1TB NAS, I've had a look at the LaCie d2 Network which is compatible with Time Machine.

Does anyone know of any others?

I would like it to support TM, iTunes Storage, drag n drop files also

Thanks

I bought this for my mini a few weeks ago. Not a NAS but plenty accessible over the network hooked up to the mini. I got it for $230. A little more expensive now. Works great so far and is pretty fast for TM backups using FW 800.

A guy at work bought one of these beasts. Seems to be the ultimate nas for home.

Thanks, so am I to assume correctly that any NAS will work with time machine?

Thanks,

No, but every Mac can be set up to work with every NAS.

Look at my post history, you will find an explanation and quick guide in from the last week in an other thread.

Have any of you filled up your sparse bundles?

I ran time machine from my iMac for about 9 months. At some point it filled up and became inaccessable (wouldn't mount anymore). Has anyone solved that issue? (ReadyNAS NV+)

No I haven't, so I don't know if I will run into that problem.

Can you manually mount the sparsebundle and delete some backups? Does that work?
