Time server time.apple.com ?
Hi. I'm running the latest ReadyNAS. Can I set the time server to time.apple.com ? Is there a way to find out if it is synchronized? I'm trying to get the NAS time to match the time on my macbook.

I have no idea what you think that is. It's much better to provide the model and the firmware version.
That said, you can use any NTP server you want. I haven't used time.apple.com myself, but I do use 0.pool.ntp.org in my ReadyNAS with no problems.
You can see NTP synchronization events in the downloaded zip file of readynas logs. With an OS 6 NAS you'd look in system.log and search for ntp: adjust If it is working properly you'll see events logged like
