(If it was available, it would probably be cheaper to buy a dedicated UNIX box :-) FreeBSD, however, supports writeable FAT partitions. So, you should be able to mount your Win partition under FreeBSD using mount -t msdos /dev/<windows> /mnt, and copy files onto it that you wish to access from Windows. Replace <windows> with the FreeBSD device name of your Windows partition.
