    I just bought one of them USB HDD's (Deal going on at Staples, the Maxtor 250GB One Touch HDD for 89.50). Well, I was just wondering if it was possible to hook this hdd directly up to my network using a USB Network adapter and a double end female usb cable. Not sure if that would work, but is there other ways to do this?
