You've now posted a third thread with this exact same thing.

http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=133093

Won't get you replies any faster and general forum courtesy is to wait at least 24 hours before bumping a thread. Wink

Why don't you go back to your first thread and give a little more info as to the OS on your system, how you are trying to access it, etc....

To me you just need a large external USB drive.

from reading his other posts, I think his question is more about how to copy the files from his flash drive to be stored on his local hard drive, is that right ese?

If so, you'll want to use a file manager application and that will depend on what operating system you are using. Are you using Windows or some form of Linux?

It seems you need to do some reading on how to share drives. If you do not know "username an password" is because you probably never set it up in the first place on the computer to are trying to read from.
And about wireless, try to avoid it you can... it's just not as reliable a good ol' cable...
