Question Computer / Networking help

Ok heres my issue...

We have a wireless lynksys router...

We need more space to store music, movies, pics, etc etc etc...

so heres the big question...

will THIS work with my wifi router?

Is there a way to hook it up so that other computers can access the harddrive via the WIFI router?

it doesnt look like it has a wireless connection so its not gonna be able to access via wireless. you could hardwire it to your network and then any pc on your network would be able to access it

nah, there should actually be instructions with the drive that tell you how to do it because thats really the purpose of the drive is to be "Network Attached Storage" so that everyone can use it. its simple
