If it accepts an HDD for time machine,(see kb.netgearsupport.com/21360)it must accept any HDD. but while trying to connect the server, I don't even get the pop up asking for a password for registered user and the connection fails.

I’m open to any good solution.

Thanks

I don't believe it accepts an HDD--not for time machine nor anythign else.

Until Netgear adds this feature the only solution is to put your HDD on another device attached to the network.
