Use Time Machine to Back Up onto a USB Hard Drive You can use Time Machine to back up your Mac computers onto a USB hard disk drive that is connected to one of the router's USB ports. To back up your Mac onto a USB hard drive: 1. Prepare your USB device with a compatible format and partitions. See Set Up a USB Hard Drive on a Mac on page 82. If you plan to back up a large amount of data, see Prepare to Back Up a Large Amount of Data on page 82. 2. Insert your USB storage drive into a USB port on the router. Note: If your USB device uses a power supply, you must use it when you connect the USB device to the router. The blue USB 3.0 port on the front of the router performs faster than the USB 2.0 port on the rear panel of the router. When you connect the USB device to the router USB port, it might take up to two minutes before it is ready for sharing. By default, the USB device is available to all computers on your local area network (LAN). 3. On your Mac computer, launch Finder and select Go > Connect to Server. The Connect to Server screen displays. 4. Type afp://routerlogin.net. Share USB Devices Attached to the Router 83
