Newest Review: ... to access the drive (as the manual implies). I noticed that the closest model on Asus' UK website (WL-500gP V2 ... the 600g ... more

 ... is visible on the global site) claims that you can access the drive through 'network neighbourhood' so I presume I won't have to use FTP. Incidentally, I noticed that the 500gP doesn't promote the extremely useful feature of a built-in printer + HDD connection very much... weird for such a rare and useful feature!
