NV+ backup/expand/restore
After living happily with our NV+ for several years, we are now ready to expand the storage. We currently have a 1TB config (4 by 250MB XRAID), and plan to replace the HDs to a total of 4TB (4 by 1TB...
The NV+ copies files at about 2.5 MB/second to an NTFS formated USB drive. The Read speed for large files over gigabit ethernet is about 25 MB/sec - 10x faster. Even 100 mbit ethernet is 5x faster than USB. I'm not sure how you set acronis up, but in this case you are wanting to copy the files, not run acronis at all.
The USB performance is not hardware related - it is a combination of driver performance and the very limited CPU in your NAS.
If your case I wouldn't use frontivew backup. But if you want to use it, read through the manual (the section you want starts at around page 80). http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/ ... 6Dec11.pdf
