Do you know what a typical size may be for one of the AutoCAD files, does the NAS have enough space for now/the future?

Not knowing the network topology, how many workstations etc, this may not be a issue, but has the network got enough headroom/spare bandwidth and speed to cope with the backups without causing slowdown?

Sorry, not trying to be difficult, just helping you to make sure you've got all bases covered.
