I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I have two HDDs. One for the OS and one for Storage (actually called Storage, even). I have three computers. This one running Ubuntu and two others running Win 7. What I'd like is for the Storage drive to be completely accessible and editable by the Windows machines. I've gone through sharing. I've gone through attempting sharing permissions. I'm not used to Linux and have been banging my head on the desk for hours now reading similar posts. I've yet to be able to read anything on any of the shares I've made. MY problem is that the Windows machines don't have access to the drive I'm trying to share.

Storagedrive need to be one of the Windows Understandable format(NTFS,FAT,etc). Try formatting it in that format.
