ReadyNAS 104 USB3 not working
Hey guys just got my ReadyNAS 104 and four brand spanking new Seagate SATA3 3TB 7200RPM Barracuda's yesterday. Everything works fine, it updated it's firmware and software and even though it took over 24hrs to resync (whatever that is) I now have it set with X-RAID2 and have around 7.8TB of usable space. My problem is that it doesn't seem to be able to connect to USB3 of which there are two ports. I've searched this forum and the net but can't find any reference to it. The main reason I chose this device was so I could transfer files to the NAS at USB3 speeds instead of Gigabit ethernet. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

- Oh... should also mention that I'm running Windows 8.1 64
- Wrong forums, this is only for ReadyDATA.
ReadyNAS issues should go here: http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=414002#p414002 - Unless I'm very much mistaken the purpose of the USB ports on the NAS is to allow you to connect an external disk to the NAS, not to connect the NAS as an external disk.
