Home network: iMac (Snow Leopard), Wireless Printer, Vigor 2800 Wireless Router, 2 Seagate USB Ext Hard Drives.
I want to make the Seagate drives part of network, i.e. instead of being connected to iMac.
I have tried PogoPlug but it doesn't support Time Machine.
Anyone suggest a solution?
Thanks

You could install a Time Capsule...and then plug the external drives into that.

Or a NAS - which connects to your routeur by Ethernet cable, and aside from being a 'box' with a disk/disks also has USB ports to connect additional drives.

As for a software solution, I'm afraid I can't help.
