Alright, I just added an 80 gig SATA hard drive to mu computer. It sees it and I can use it to store and all without problems.

I want to be able to put that entire 80 gigs on my network so my family can use it to share stuff instead of having to stick it on thumb drives all the time.

I am using Windows Vista home premium.

How would I go about doing this?

Thanks in advance

go to my computer, right click on your hard drive that you want to share, go to properties, click the sharing tab go to advanced sharing.

no, file sharing is for the whole network.
