I have a Win7 PC, a Vista PC, and a Mac Book Pro. I'm looking for a NAS that will work with them all.

I'm about to pull the trigger on a Netgear ReadyNAS NV+ as it appears to meet all my needs. Because the MBP will connect via wireless, I'm not comfortable nor planning on using it as a time machine...I have a firewire 1TB drive for that.

My question: is there anything I need to do to make it work with my MBP?

Use Netgear modem/router but not familiar with that model storage unit. Go to Netgear's web site where manuals are available for download and check things out. Here is the link:-
