I see. So to restore from a NAS drive to, say, Mac #1 I would have to connect to the NAS drive from another computer on the same network (Mac #2), then use Mac #2 to clone the SD! image drive from the NAS to the local drive of Mac#1. Is this correct?

Thanks!

PS I read in some forum posts elsewhere that there are in fact ways to use Time Machine on a network drive, provided that one can initialize the Time Machine drive connecting it directly to the Mac as a local drive. After that the drive can be set up as a network drive and Time Machine should be able to recognize it. I guess I will have to try to see if cloning the existing Time Machine backup from the local drive to the NAS will enable Time Machine to recognize the drive....
