Is Archer VR900 compatible with Time Machine? Sudo tmutil setdestination -a does not support Time Machine backups. Then I repeated commands #1 and #2 above (after the defaults change in #3). Time machine still can't 'Select Disk' for backups.Ĥ. Sudo defaults write TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes 1 Then I tried to make Time Machine 'see' other drives too, (I read it somewhere but I'm not sure it is still applicable/effective): Volumes/volume(sda2): Disk does not support Time Machine backups. Sudo tmutil setdestination -a '/Volumes/volume(sda2)' The backup destination could not be added. Sudo tmutil setdestination -a resulted in:ĭisk does not support Time Machine backups. The device can be seen normally as a network drive, and also Time Machine can mount the backupbundle and see it for accessing backups (already written inside it via USB) BUT it cannot backup TO it when requested! AirPort doesn't see it either.Īdditional things I tried using Terminal.app: I bought a Seagate Expansion 10TB USB drive and it doesn't cooperate correctly with Mac's Time Machine when connected to the Archer VR900 router.
