TommyLog TECH – Setting Up Could Not Be Easier – NETGEAR ReadyNAS 214

[Disclaimer: I am a NETGEAR Ambassador and I received this product in exchange for my honest, unbiased opinion and review]

Hey kids, for today’s TommyLog Tech I want to show you how easy it is to get up and running with the new NETGEAR ReadyNAS 214.

When I opened the ReadyNAS 214, I said to myself “Tommy – Do you think you can get this running and serving files in less than 10 minutes?” Well I wasn’t sure. Did I have to load firmware, install drives, format, partition, and update drivers? No, no, no, no and DOUBLE NO!
Power, network and Go! It’s really that easy. Take a look for yourself how simple getting the ReadyNAS 214 to share files really is. NETGEAR made it so easy, even my 8-year-old daughter Emma could do it. Honestly.

Getting the ReadyNAS 214 set-up and running in less than 10 minutes is totally Tommy Approved!

TommyLog TECH – NETGEAR ReadyNAS 202 & OS X Time Machine

Netgear ReadyNAS 202 Time Machine

Hey kids, for today’s TommyLog Tech I would like explore being a Mac user with the NETGEAR ReadyNAS 202.

One of the first things that comes to mind when I think external hard drive or NAS and my Mac’s is setting up Time Machine. For those Mac OS X users who don’t know about Time Machine, here’s a short primer. Time machine is an internal OS X software that backs up every piece of your Mac experience. Its job is to remember how your Mac was the last time it was backed up. Time Machine can put that one file or application or, in the case of catastrophic failure, rebuild your entire machine. Every application, webpage, password, cookie and document is restored to its proper place. Time Machines isn’t just a backup, it can restore files “back in time” and saves a history of your work. As long as your Time Machine backup storage place has free space, it will keep revisions of your work. Apple has more info here on the matter. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201250

Traditionally getting Time Machine to work wirelessly required either an Apple Airport Time Capsule or Airport Extreme with an attached external USB drive. This is not the case with the NETGEAR ReadyNAS 202. Setting up Time machine on the ReadyNAS could not have been easier! A few quick steps and then it’s pretty much set it and forget it. It just works and work well it did!

Getting Time machine running on the ReadyNAS 202 is totally Tommy Approved!
