Can you use Drobo as external disk on WRT610N?

I looked around on the forum here for info, but couldn't find anything.  I am attempting to hook up a Drobo to my WRT610N and it doesn't show up under the router setup page.  Am I doing something wrong or is this just not a supported device of this router?  I have updated to the latest firmware.
Thanks for the help!

Wonder if it is because it is a RAID array
Probably so... I read here that the E3000 which is a newer router can't recognize RAID. Or you might need to wait a while for it to get recognized, like on this thread.
Sorry if that's much of a help, just pointing out possible resources

  • Can you use the same external hard drive for Time Machine backups and as an additional storage drive?

    I have an external HD that I've been using exclusively for Time Machine backups. I need to clear space on my hard drive, so I was thinking to move music & photos to an external drive.  Wondering if I can use the same one I have (which I'll aslo keep using for Time Machine) or if I need to get another drive. 

    Hi Jossydtaylor,
    Time Machine can use either an entire external disk or a partition of that disk:
    OS X Mountain Lion: Disks you can use with Time Machine
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11171
    You can use Time Machine with a Time Capsule, and with USB, FireWire, and Thunderbolt disks. The backup disk can be directly connected to your computer or be on a network. If the backup disk has been divided into partitions, you can use one of the partitions.
    If the disk is partitioned using the Master Boot Record (MBR) partition type, some partitions may not be available for use with Time Machine. The GUID Partition Table (GPT) partition type is recommended.
    For more info on partitioning, see this article:

  • Can you use windows 7 upgrade disk on late 2011 macbook pro?

    I am new to mac so bear with me please.
    I only have a windows upgrade disk, the bootcamp FAQ page says either full install or upgrade versions of windows 7 will work, but, the manual says only full. can anyone clarify for me please?
    Also, is there a way to get around the fact that to use timemachine backup I need to have a FAT formatted disk? I am coming from windows and have all my media on an external drive and would like to use that drive as my backup drive, but since its not formatted for FAT it cant be used.
    Thanks ahead of time for the help. Just switched and I am liking it so far! Just trying to get windows on here as I use some windows only applications for work.

    Requirements to use Time Machine
    Time Machine is only available with Leopard or later.
    External FireWire or USB 2.0 drive
    Time Capsule
    Drive shared by a Mac running 10.5 or later using File Sharing
    Drive shared by a Mac running 10.5 Server

    A TM drive must be partitioned with either APM (PPC) or GUID (Intel) and formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled.)

  • Mirro Raid can you use a single 4TB disk with 2 partitions for mirrored raid ?

    Hello,
    I have a new 4TB hardrive.
    After lots of reading, i was thinking that i could partician the drive to 2 (2TB) Then create mirror raid.
    Essentially thinking that i would have photos on one of the (2TB particions) and they would mirror on the other  ?? as a double copy storage.
    I can partician okay and the try to drag the two particians onto the "mirror raid set" and ithe following message displays :
    "Can't add Seagate expansion disk" to the raid set because another volume from this disk is already part of the RAID set"
    I'm now thinking i need to purchase another 4tb hardrive for this to work ?
    Or if you "mirror raid set" is it actually particioning the drive and creating a copy ?
    Forgive me... i'm not really very up skilled with disk utility, and basically just don't understand.
    Looking forward to some help and advise
    warm regards Tracy Gr

    It doesn't make any sense to mirror on the same drive. The idea behind mirroring is that should one disk in the raid set fail your data is safe on the other disk. Mirroring to partitions, if it's even possible, would only bring you disaster when the drive fails because you would lose the complete raid set and all of your data. If you insist on mirroring buy another drive.

  • How can you use Win 7 upgrade disk if Boot Camp 4 doesn't support XP or Vista?

    I've just purchased a Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade disk to upgrade my Win XP Pro. I haven't installed Lion or Boot Camp 4 yet but am concerned that if I need to reinstall Win 7 in the future the upgrade disk will require that Win XP Pro be installed first.
    If  my Win XP Pro isn't supported and can't be reinstalled in Lion/Boot Camp 4, does anyone know what my options would be?
    Can't get to Microsoft tech support without having a post-install product ID and their forums don't seem to cover this specific question for Mac/Boot Camp users or VMWare/Parallels users. I'm hoping that once activated that might be enough to turn the upgrade disk to a full version for reinstalling, but I'm not betting on it.
    Any help appreciated before I permanently remove my XP Boot Camp partition for a clean install of Win 7 Ultimate.
    Thanks

  • Can you use a Ethernet hard drive on a airpot express

    Can you use a ethernet hard disk on a airport express?
    such as this one?
    http://www.currys.co.uk:80/martprd/store/curpage.jsp?BV_SessionID=@@@@1258649623.1206555836@@@@&BVEngineID=cccdadedjieihldcflgceggdhhmdgmj.0&page=Accessory&sku=306727

    More than likely this is NOT possible since most Belkin routers are NOT compatible with Apple's WDS.
    However if you are using a Belkin F5D7230-4 or F5D7231 you might be able to get it to work. You need to configure the Belkin and the AirPort Express (AX) to connect wirelessly using WDS. Only then is the AX's Ethernet port enabled.

  • Can a use a partitioned external hard drive to create a disk image? I tried, doesn't seem to work using disk manager.

    Can a use a partitioned external hard drive to create a disk image? I tried, doesn't seem to work using disk manager.

    OK, it's very bad computing to use a backup disk for anything but a backup. The reason being is if/when the HD crashes you will have lost not only all your backup but the data files. While I commend you for wanting redundant backup, you really need separate EHDs for doing so. Format each EHD using Disk Utility to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) using the GUID parttition. When you connect, OS X will ask if you want to use that drive as a Time Machine backup drive, select yes and then let it backup. On the second EHD format the same way however do not use TM as a backup, this time I'd suggest an app such as SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to make a clone of the internal HD. Leave both EHDs connected and TM will backup new or changed files automatically on a hourly basis. The clone you will need to set to backup on the schedule you want. For example I have my SuperDuper EHD set to backup only changed or updated files at 2AM every day.
    The advantage of a clone is that if the computers internal HD crashes you can boot from a clone and continue working, TM will not do that but it's great for keeping an archive of all files. So if you want a version of a file from many months ago, TM will help you locate and restore it.

  • Can you use TC as just an external hard drive

    Can a TC be set up as just an external hard drive?

    Yes, as long as you use ethernet or wireless.. not USB.
    Then you do have some setup issues. Because for instance if you use ethernet for network, it is much better to put the TC onto the network.. just use bridge modem.. or you can use wireless.. but it is hard to use the same service for both internet and the TC connection if they are separate.
    Beaten by Bob.. BBB.. second time this week.. (in Maxwell Smart voice).
    Good point he makes.. you can use a straight external disk at half the price. USB direct to the computer is much faster than wireless and not that much slower than ethernet. Maybe even same.

  • Can you use external hard drives with the HP Omni 10 5600US

    Since this a Windows tablet, can you use external hard drives with the HP Omni 10 5600US?
    I know there is a micro-sd reader for additional storage but can you use the usb for external hard drives like a regular pc?
    I tried looking at the spec's for this tablet and it said the usb port was host only. I'm not sure what that means exactly.

    Yes you can.  You'll need to purchase a USB OTG (on-the-go) cable.  I recommend using a drive that has its own power supply but I've successfully used small USB powered drives also.

  • Can you use a external hard drive to keep all your iTunes info on it

    Can you use a external hard drive to keep all your iTunes info on it

    Yes.
    The easiest way is to copy the whole iTunes folder out to the external drive, then press and hold down shift as you click the icon to start iTunes. Keep holding shift until asked to "Create or choose a library". Choose the library on the external drive.

  • HT1766 Can you use an external hard drive to back up my movies in iTunes but still be able to access them or is there a device so I don't have to use a pc ??

    Can you use an external hard drive to back up my movies in iTunes but still be able to access them or is there a device so I don't have to use a pc ??

    You can store them on a separate hard drive, you don't need to keep them on your laptop's hard drive. On your computer's iTunes on the Advanced tab in Edit > Preferences there is a 'copy files to iTunes media file when adding to library' tickbox - if you untick that, you should be able to copy the films to a separate drive and add them back to your iTunes library (File > Add To Library) and it should then point to them on that separate drive and not copy them to your hard drive. When you are happy that it is what is happening and that they are safely on your external drive you can delete the films from your laptop's hard drive.
    If you plug the external drive into a different USB port next time (assuming that your laptop has more than one) then it might get a different drive letter, so you might need to always use it with the same port.

  • Can you use other disk drives on mac mini rather than the superdrive?

    I have just purchased a mac mini and am exploring the various options available to me regarding disk drives?
    Are you limited to just the Mac Superdrive or can you use other makes and models?
    i read somewhere that some drives will only let you install software and not let you Burn Music or play games?
    Is that correct.

    I have three firewire burners daisy-chained to the mini for ripping my CD collection.

  • HT5299 Thunderbolt-Can you use an  adaptor From a thunderbolt External drive to a firewire 800/400 Mac

    Thunderbolt-Can you use an  adaptor From a thunderbolt External drive to a firewire 800/400 Mac

    No. The Thunderbolt to Firewire adapters only work to connect a Firewire drive to a Thunderbolt port. They do not work in reverse, to connect a Thunderbolt-only drive to a Firewire port. If the only port your drive has is a Thunderbolt port and all you have on the Mac is Firewire, you can't use that drive with that computer.

  • Can you use disk utility to make a backup of Time Capsule?

    I have a client who would like to keep a lot of important files on his time capsule for network usage, however I would like him to back up the time capsule. Can you use disk utility to make a copy of the data on the Time Capsule?
    Lastly is there a way you can remotely access the files on the time capsule? (he would like to remotely access files on the time capsule).
    thank you.
    you should be able to use Back to my Mac to access the time capsule correct?
