| NAS drive and Mac OS X I have NAS box that I want to use to store my iTunes music. Even though I know the IP address to the NAS, I always have issues trying to connect to it from my mac running OS X 10.5.4. The only way that I have been able to find and connect to is is when one of my Windows machines is turned on at which point I can see them from within the finder as a shared folder. Can anyone suggest an easier way to find and connect to the NAS without turning any of the Window boxes on? TIA Javier  |

| You can use the NAS's IP address to connect to it from the Mac. What protocols does the NAS support? SMB/CIFS? AFP? AppleTalk? NFS? FTP?

| It supports FTP, SMB, CIFS, as well as NFS Network protocol. The box in question is from the Promise Technology Inc model number NS4300n. It is connected via an ethernet cable to my Linksys wireless router. Javier |
