How can I / is it possible to write (copy files from A to B) to an external HDD over Wifi?
I live in a house with 12 people, and we all use the Wifi.
I own 3 different laptops (Macbook OSX 10.5, Laptop Windows 7, Netbook Win XP Pro)
I own one ex-HDD, which houses all my music/videos/documents.
What I want to do is be the only one on the wifi network that can see the ex-HDD when it is plugged in to any of my computers, and copy / paste files to it.
Basically I want my ex-HDD, when plugged in, to be like my file server, an only I should be able to see it (because I'm sure setting need to be set to share the HDD or something)
Remember I own 3 different OS's Mac OSX, Win7 and WinXP Pro.
Thus meaning from any of the 3 OS's I have, I have full access to the files (delet, copy, read/write etc... etc)
Any help is always appreciated.
Pardon me in advance if I misunderstand your tips/help/comments, I'm not that tech literate .
