Hello Group
I am having a bit of a play/experiment :-)
I have just built myself a server out of old bits and have attached to
it a Buffalo Terrastation. The plan is to use a Shared Data directory
on the server for all my data and then run scheduled backups to the
Buffalo. Hopefully this will stop me from updating the wrong files when
I switch PC's.
Is anybody running TB! with data kept on a server? The laptop I
use is wi-fi connected - 801.11g- and maintains a pretty reliable connection
to the network.
If anybody is doing this I would appreciate comments on usability. I
guess it's technically possible but every time the laptop goes into
standby it loses its network connection. It re-connects automagically
but only after loads of error messages from Explorer ('My Documents'
is on the server now) - which could be avoided if it was intelligent
enough to wait for the connection before doing anything else.
The laptop doesn't travel so I don't need access to the data while
away from base.
Many thanks.
