My D-link NAS needed the Timemachine compatibility turning on. it was an option in admin panel. Worked fab once i sorted that and mapped a drive...

Just bought one of these and all 3 of our Macs recognised it out of the box as a file server and a backup drive.
My Book Live.
Plus, once registered, any computer can access the file share through the WD website, once logged in it mounts as a remote volume.

Terminal, log into NAS and do this in it's root..
touch .com.apple.timemachine.supported
Should work then cos Mac will think it's a Time Capsule and do the needful - Google about a bit tho, that used to work, might not now....
Works(ed) on any share or used to!

It turns out my nas is not supported and time machine wont back up to this device.
What are the alternatives ? Buying a time capsule ?
I could just buy a different NAS drive - but which one ?

Essentially you are creating a virtual Mac OS partition on the NAS device and pointing Timemachine at that. Just make sure you set it up with a big enough volume size for your backups.
