Load Balancing Question

I have a web app that is installed on 2 web servers. Users are sent to
either one of them using a load balancer. A part of my application allows
uploading of data files. At this point we are planning to save the files to
a third server which is accessible by both web servers. Hence I am trying to
figure out how accomplish this?
* Do I create a shared folder on the third server and give access to web
server1 and 2 to write the files? If yes, what exactly I should be doing
(what account to use and how to share etc and type of permission etc) ?
I am open to any other ideas/suggestions too. TIA.

(Assuming the sites are using anonymous login) You will need to change the
anonymous user to a domain user that has access to the 3rd server. Then
setup security on the shared folder accordingly.
