X-Ray Mac Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 I was wondering with the Router I have, is there anyway I can connect my External Hard Drive to it to access it? I have a MBP and I didn't know if there is anything I can connect my external to that it would work with. Any info (other than buying a new router) is a appreciated Thanks!

(MoC) Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Sadly I don't think there is any other alternative other than: 1. Wiring the HDD through a small computer next to the router 2. Time Capsule Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jivhg Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I have a WRT54G and it works fine, I dunno what your problem is... Yes, I do have H4CK1NT0SH on an external HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-Ray Mac Posted May 16, 2008 Author Share Posted May 16, 2008 I never said it didn't work, I said I wondered if there was any way I could hook my external hard drive up to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inimicus Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Yeah, you can get a network accessible storage device. It's basically an external enclosure with ethernet. Plug it in to your router and tada. (Hard drive usually not included.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~pcwiz Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Even though they look like ext. HDs a lot of the stuff listed on that page are enclosures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
