After about a dozen hours of troubleshooting and going thru all the solutions posted on forums, I've given up. I'm returning it and buying a Time Capsule. I DO NOT recommend the Central Axis for Time Machine backup. I bought the Central Axis for my mac to use w/ Time Machine.

It's 1:33 am here and mine just died after 4 years of dedicated service. (the memorial is tomorrow) I need to have client stuff backed up soon.

If so, that would seem to eliminate the need for the mediocre backup software included with the device. Will the Central Axis work with Apple’s Time Machine backup software?
