There is a thread on here from years back that went on for months where there were issues in the MACs accessing the data on the READYNAS and it taking ages to show up. Its compounded problem wise even further by them being a cross platform design studio with Macs and Pc's.
Probably they need a complete new NAS to something more modern with a cloud backup solution but even that is not straight forward with the file sizes and amount of data. I have seen the backup issue with Netgear NAS on other sites also. Yes you are supposed to be able to with this one but its just totally unreliable. I don't know if that is an option on Netgear. I know with newer NAS's you have the option to back it up to another NAS. 400gb and growing and of course some of the artwork files are pretty big. One Drive perhaps? The issue of course being the amount of data. I tried Easeus Todo backup a while ago and wondered if that would do a better job but I also wondered if it would be possible to perhaps move the backups to the cloud. They are using an old version of Cobian backup which also is not really working for them anymore and is no longer supported. I know here is a backup facility within Readynas but its never worked properly which is why they use this method. so it backs up slowly across the network. Currently to back up the NAS they are using an old Version of Cobian backup running on one of the PCs which each night is supposed to backup the NAS to a 3gb USB drive connected to that machine. They have about 400gb of data on it and some of the files are pretty big. I have an client that uses a netgear Readynas for storing artwork files on a peer to peer network (mixture of Macs and PC's).
