Storage

Right-e-o guys

Re: Storage

If you remove the DVD player from the situation Id get a Network storage caddy.

This has room for a Harddrive and a network port (some have wireless too ), this will then act like a file server with a windows file share on as well as FTP access. Then just network your PC's.
