Hi chaps.
looking for the best / closest device to suit my needs, so here they are.
Must support NTFS over ethernet,
Must also have a usb port,
Must either be able to have usb and ethernet working at the same time, OR, when usb device is switched on that its plugged into, usb disables ethernet. When no usb device present, ethernet works as normal. Prefer to not have to unplug / replug in, but if thats all thats possible, so be it.
Also a ftp server would be nice, and on top of that a customisable ftp server which support site-to-site or fxp transfers would be even better!
I dont mind if its a unit i have to put custom firmware on, as long as it lets me plug into one computer with usb, and one with ethernet with ntfs support on both.
