AMA - Ask Us Anything About ReadyNAS and You Could Win a ReadyNAS 214!
We are hosting an extended 4 week Ask Me Anything AMA for the NETGEAR ReadyNAS line of products and we would love to answer your ReadyNAS questions. Best of all, posting your question below enter...
Can ReadyNas 214 backup to drives that is connected to Netgear R7000 Router? Or other netgear routers.
I'm close to a buying decision, seeing that I'm at 94% usage on my Duo! (or maybe win the one on offer here - who knows! :smileywink: ) I'm more inclined to the RN212, but a 214 would be a nice upgrade!
Last question. Do the RN212/RN214 models support the latest 6TB drives from Toshiba (N300 - HDWN160UZSVA for example)?

Not sure why you'd want to do that when you can connect one directly to the NAS. Provided the router shares it over SMB I think that should be possible however the samba code on routers is often a lot older than that on our ReadyNAS. I haven't tested this.
I don't think the Orbi supports USB storage at this time.
