I'm looking for a new external hard drive to use as a repository for my iTunes music folder and backup drive. During my research, I came across LaCie's Ethernet Disk. Am I correct in understanding that I can connect the drive directly to my router with an ethernet cable and it will be mountable on any computer on the network?

    Yep, that's right. (Unless you're buying the Ethernet Disk mini which requires special software to access the drive).

    Is the "special software" basic driver-type software that allows my computers to se the disk, or is it more complicated where I'd have to run a special application every time I wanted to mount the disk?
