Back up a Mac with Time Machine
You can use Time Machine to back up a Mac onto a USB hard disk drive (HDD) that is
connected to the access point/router’s USB port. You can access the connected USB
HDD from your Mac with a wired or WiFi connection to the access point/router network.
Set up a USB hard disk drive on a Mac
We recommend that you use a new USB hard disk drive (HDD) or format your existing
USB HDD to perform the Time Machine backup for the first time. Use a blank partition
to prevent any problems during backup using Time Machine. The access point/router
supports GUID or MBR partitions.
To format your USB HDD and specify partitions:
1. Connect a USB HDD storage device to the USB port on the access point/router.
2.
If your USB HDD uses a power supply, connect it.
You must use the power supply when you connect the USB HDD to the access
point/router.
When you connect the USB HDD to the access point/router’s port, it might take up
to two minutes before it is ready for sharing. By default, the USB HDD is available to
all computers and mobile devices on the access point/router network.
