They are network aware and addressable on the network just like printer or another network pc. I just added an 8 port switch to my home system directly off my AT&T Uverse modem/router. I've connected a network printer and next will be a network storage drive the entire fam cam use for general storage or to back up their local systems.Wither it be at home or office if you have a spare port on your router or network switch the NAS drive is a better way to go and everybody can access it. Start off with at least 1 or 2 TB.</blockquote>
