Ok, so....this is what I would like to do, maybe someone here can tell me if it is possible:
I have decided to get rid of all of my CDs and rip them into iTunes. We're talking about 1,100 CDs. I've ripped about 200 of them so far, and am up to 40GB on my MacBook. Sooner or later, I am going to run out of space, especially since I am keeping my TV shows and movies on a separate external drive to make room.
Is it possible to:
Get an Airport Base Station (and/or) Airport Express...
Hook up an external hard drive to the Airport...
Keep my iTunes music on a 1TB external hard drive...
Access it from my MacBook (and from my iMac when I get one).
Is this possible? If it isn't, does anyone have any better ideas on how to keep my music files on an external drive and be able to access them from my laptop and my desktop?
If the above isn't possible....it **** well should be. ;-) That would be very cool, especially as I keep ripping CDs...it would be nice to know they are going straight into the external hard drive (which I will then also backup to be safe).
