Hi to everybody. I am new at sql, and have a problem about attaching datbase.
I have a dlink dns-323 2-bay, sata network storage enclosure, and want to attach the database files from that hardware, but when i try to attach it, i can not see the storage box under browse screen, when i type the path of the storage box (like \\192.168.1.2\volume_1\xxx_data.mdf ) i get an error warning, tells that the data files were not on supported drive(s). Is there any solution for that problem? how can i connect the databases from that storage box on lan?
Thanks in advance...

Is it possible to copy files to your network storage and then attach?

Then why are you specifying \\hostname\..? Can you copy database files to your local server?
