Hi,

I have just purchased a 1GB WD NAS drive but I cannot access it from my mac pro via time machine. Is there a way that I can do this or should i return it now and get a refund?

Thanks peeps.

Time Machine does not work with networked drives EXCEPT for the Time Capsule.

Officially it's not supported, but there are directions on the interwebs to make it work.
