Hi all tech heads!
I need a Hard drive that can kinda run itself on the network so I can store data on it instead of on my laptop. Does such a magical device exist?
If so can someone please point me in the right direction? I will need a good amount of space 150-300gb would be nice!
Thanks in advance!

Something like this U.S. Robotics USR8200 Router would presumably do the trick. It has built in USB and firewire to hook up an external hd.0

one of these should do the trick!
