Hello all,
I am a photographer that has three computers at our studio. I am trying to keep all of our data accesible to one server or drive. We purchased a QNAP TS-453 Pro. I need to keep a fast transfer rate because of the heavy data loads we are going through so just hooking up our computers to the NAS via the router is not a great option.
The guys at Best Buy told me to hook the ethernet cables up directly to the NAS. I did so and the MAC's seem to work perfectly, however I cannot find the drive on my Windows 8.1 PC which is my main production computer.
The NAS has USB ports on the back but I do not think I can connect directly to those.
I can still return the NAS if this is not the best solution for my needs. Any help would be appreciated.
