Time Machine Compatibility

[AjTrek]

I currently have a Netgear X6 R8000 and Time Machine works perfectly OTA for four (4) Mac's.  Thinking of upgrading to the NetGear X8 R8500. No reviews read (nor does Netgear) say anything about support for Time Machine with NetGear X8 R8500. In fact a Cnet review says it does not support Time Machine.

Question:

Has anyone used used Time Machine with the NetGear X8 R8500? I would asume that all is required is a HD formatted to HFS+ Journalized and conected to the USB 3.0 port?

Thanks in advance for responding!

Hi @AjTrek

Welcome to the community!

Per page 121 of the R8500 manual, it has the Time Machine information.

See this link on how to set it up.
