i just got one from ebay lately and ive been trying to set it up for 2 days not and still i cant make it to work like i want to.
my setting is just a volume1 with all my media files in there.
basically it just like this:
Volume_1
-iceman
-itunes (my itunes library)
-movies
-tv series
all i want to do is to restrict others for manipulating my data over the network. so waht i did is put a userA and put the Volume_1 and all the subfolder with a read/write permission on.

then i went to network shares and put the volume_1 and set the permission with read/write only to userA and the subfolders with just read access.

I am not 100% sure about 320, but for my 325 the sharing defaults to SMB/CIFS so as a first thing on a Mac I would mount these as AFP shares and then proceed from there.
I have had my 325 since last October and so far can't complain about AFP server functionality.
Additionally, my measurements show that the AFP performance exceeds that of SMB by 53%.
(13,5MB/s for AFP vs 8,8MB/s for SMB over 300Mbps 802.11n wireless. Wired-gigabit performance for AFP yields 41MB/s for me).

thanks priitv8.... ill try that. but it says here that enabling the AFP will disable oplocks. will disabling oplocks can make my files be manipulated by a windows machines in the network?

Well, as far as I understand, the opportunistic locks (oplocks) are actually no locks at all, much less something to miss in home environment:
PS naturally, this is a LanMan-only feature, so you wouldn't see it in Mac networks anyway.
Opportunistic locking is actually an improper name for this feature. The true benefit of this feature is client-side data caching, and oplocks is merely a notification mechanism for writing data back to the networked storage disk. The limitation of oplocks is the reliability of the mechanism to process an oplock break (notification) between the server and the caching client. If this exchange is faulty (usually due to timing out for any number of reasons), then the client-side caching benefit is negated.

i did try it and i notice the only folder that is not allowing me to write is on itunes folder. so frustrating i dont know where im doing it wrong >:(
the only way to make me write on the itunes folder is not to create a user and reset my network shares... which i dont like because anyone in the network can accidentally delete or manipulate the data >:(

Well, I have set the appropriate rights to the folders, like this:
