Hello,
I have a 120 GB Seagate harddrive and I want to turn it into a drive that is accessible from any computer on my local network? What do I need to buy? What do I need to do?

Thanks

is the hard drive internal or external (as in does it sit inside the PC or does it use a USB connection)

if it's external you could check if your router has a USB port, as some of the higher end routers can share a USB external hard drive to the network.

if it's an internal drive you could look at buying a NAS enclosure, but as the drive is only 120GB it would be better value for money if you just bought one with a (larger) hard drive pre-installed.
