In simple terms. You'll be gaining disk space at the cost of performance. Do note that by compressing the drive you are converting the drive to NTFS(if it isn't already) and you can't network a NTFS comp to FAT32(usually what everyone is on) computer.
not true - the format of the drive has no effect on how it works in a simple windows network, as it is the OS on the machine sharing the drive that performs the disk operations, not the machine accessing the share.
