Yes but that still will not allow you to use the WD drive as a stand-alone device, which is what it was meant for. You may as well go with the server idea
That's what I'm saying. By the looks of things, yes you are!
....unless someone comes up with a patch for the software that WD are distributing with it ;)
I guess you could find the IP addy of the drive and connect the drive through your PC, but I think the whole point of this drive was supposed to be that you don't have to do that.
If you connect it like that then you have to leave the PC powered on at all times to access the Data from the WD...
