Good day everyone,

I have the following setup at home
one macbook pro 15" which i use for my personal use
one desktop pc which runs windows 7 which i use for work
both of the above are connected to a router, wirelessly through an apple airport extreme.

I intend to plug an external HDD to the airport extreme so I can backup from both machines my data and other files.

I know that once the drive is connected it will probably be shown in the finder on the macbook.
What i dont know is how I can access the HDD from the windows PC
Is there a set of settings that can be done through the air port extreme to allow access to it?

Your help/advise will be appreciated

Thank you
Yannis
 
I have a similar problem, how can I connect my windows 7 computer to the network drive on the airport extreme?
