Re: A hard drive and a wireless router
 

Look at the end of the day your best solution to share a drive across the network is by using NAS. The second best option of sharing the drive would be I spose firewire from a server computer that is on most of the time if you have one. The absolute worst way would be to buy a new router and network share a drive over USB. You now have the facts its your choice

I think I'll probably go the NAS way, but the idea of sharing a printer too sounded good. Thanks for all your advice.
