I just got a new Ultra 4 (RNDU4220) and am finding Time Machine so slow as to be unusable. I've read various threads here, but am not finding a solution. I'm not well-versed in networks, but if I ...
I'm using Snow Leopard. The NAS is fresh out of the box (arrived 11/23) with the latest firmware (I don't have the version handy*, but did check the website for firmware & software updates).

Thus, the whole thing is boxed up and going back. Right I'm debating on giving Netgear another chance, but providing my own drives (this is my 4th Seagate failure in less than 6 months); or going with a different solution.
Thanks,
John
