Acronis Product Selection - Western Digital Sentinel Server

Thread needs solution

I need help selecting the right Acronis product. I presently have two home PCs using True Image Home 2010 Standard Upgrade backing up daily to the WD Sentinel. I also have the WD Sentinel backing up it's files daily. Since the Sentinel back up is managed from my PC, many GB of data is transported via the LAN. I want to install Acronis on the WD Sentinel so that it runs its own backup, thus eliminating the Sentinel to Sentinel traffic on the LAN. What product is right for this application? Thank you.

If it is a NAS running under Windows Storage Server 2008 , then the possible choice is Backup & Recovery Server for Windows ( http://www.acronis.com/backup-recovery/smallbusiness.html#ABR11-5SW ) . There is no discounted edition for Storage Server Essentials ( like SBS edition for Small Business Server)

Thank you. Unfortunately the price is far greater than the existing slow method so I will stick with what I have. Thanks again!
