[QUOTE="Postpunk, post: 43849"] Yes I've been looking at the new airport express also but I believe you cannot mount a hard drive directly into the USB port on airport express (or the regular base station for that matter). That USB port is for USB printers only. The Linksys device works by taking the USB line out of the hard drive and feeding it into an ethernet network (for example into the LAN port on airport base stations). Again, the Linksys device seems to not support Mac although I have not had time to give them a call yet. Thanks for the input. [/QUOTE]
