I don't believe they write simultaneously but there is a queue system to write and read from the device. You might need one of the PC's to act as a slave but in my office I do have 3 PC's sharing a single external HD. One of the PC's has the software to access the HD (via USB to the master PC) and that drive is shared via Windows to give access to the other PCs.
