Hi, i recently bought a My Book 1TB Essential Edition USB 2.0 External Hardrive and was wondering if it were possible to connect the drive to my home network. This, i hope, would allow me to have a large storage space for sharing files through my wireless network. I would put all of my music on the drive, and that would free up space for other computers while still allowing them to access the music through the drive. I don’t know exactly how i would go about doing this, or if it is even possible. I read something about Mapping a Network Drive, but i don’t know whether that is what i am looking for. Is it possible or recommended that i share the drive? How would i go about connecting it directly to the network? (not the same as creating a workgroup and sharing the drive) If you have any suggestions or help, thanks. Maybe in a later post i will ask about sharing the drive between mac and pc computers…
thanks again.
