I didn't see where in that link that it talked much about moving the TM bundle from one NAS to another. However, your response in topic http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=71&t=57771 talks about creating a share on the destintion NAS, backing it up to there, then in admin frontview moving the bundle around.
Is that how you'd still suggest moving the TM bundle?
And... since I'm combining two NV+'s into one Pro6, I'm thinking of expanding the TM bundle to allow multiple Macs to backup to it. Am I correct that I'll have to basically create a new larger bundle and then manually copy files from the old smaller bundle over to the new larger bundle -- perhaps combining this with the backup from the NV+ to a special share, then copy files from that bundle to the c/.timemachine bundles? Or is there some other / better way to expand that size of a TM share while retaining previous TM data?
(thanks!)
