so here is my current setup:
macbook in basement near tv.
apple tv in basement.
airport opposite side of tv in the basement.
mac mini on main floor.
now, what i'd like to do is connect a external drive to my airport and have it shared with all the devices so i can say download a tv show on my macbook, throw it on the drive then play it on my apple tv.
i currently have a external drive connected to my airport handling my backups for my macbook, so i'll want to keep that there still to handle my backups but have another drive or somehow use that one for tv shows and movies and get another to handle my backups. (mac mini back ups are on a external drive connected directly to it).
do-able?
issues?
what do i need to do to set it up?
