I recently purchased the ReadyNAS duo and based on this thread, I have decided to try to make TIme Machine work on the unit. After reading the various instructions and links, I thought I would throw out an idea and see if you guys that this might work.
I have an AirPort Extreme N as my base station. I know that you can now connect a USB Drive to the USB port and us it as a Time Machine. This has been true since the Time Capsule release. It creates all the " criteria" needed to make it work with your mac.
Here is my idea. Why not just copy the data from the AirPort attached Time Machine to the ReadyNAS. Then tell Time Machine the new location.
Any thoughts.
