WD MyBook Live Access to Streaming Folder?

Posted by: GraemeH on 28 June 2013

I've been using my NAS as HDX back-up only to date but I'm getting near capacity on the HDX. Can I create a new 'Share' then copy all my back up files over to it on the same NAS - and then access that from the HDX to stream?

 

Or do I need a separate NAS? One for back-up and one to hold files for streaming?

 

Many thanks,

will need 2 NAS. One to use and one as a backup. 

 

I have two Nas boxes broken right now!

Graeme,

 

 The "second NAS" could be an external hard drive which will be cheaper. Preferably with USB 3.0 for speed.

Attached to the PC or straight to the HDX Gerry? (I know naim don't recommend the latter but some seem to do it) G

I attach the external drive to the NAS, the latter is programmed to back up to a schedule.
