To set it up:

1Connect the hard disk to the AirPort Extreme USB port (d) using a USB cable.

2Open AirPort Utility (located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a computer using Mac OS X, and in Start > All Programs > AirPort on a computer using Windows), select your base station, and then click Continue.

3Follow the onscreen instructions to create a new network if you have not already set up your network.

Computers can access the hard disk to share or store files using Mac OS X v10.4 or later, or Windows XP (with Service Pack 2) or Windows Vista.

Note: If you are using a Windows computer, make sure you install Bonjour for Windows, located on the AirPort CD that came with your base station.
