Connecting a USB Hard Drive

7
Connect a USB hard drive to the USB port on the rear of your My Book World
Edition for additional storage. The USB drive will appear as a Folder Share in
Network Storage Manager. See "Folder Shares" on page 66 (Basic Mode) or "Folder
Shares" on page 96 (Advanced Mode) for details.
Important: USB hard drives that are formatted with FAT32 are limited to
only 4 GB that can be copied for each file. If you try to transfer files that are
larger, you may encounter a Copy Termination error.
Note: The network storage system supports external USB storage; USB optical drives (CD/DVD
combo or a DVD dual/multi drive) are not supported.

Copy Manager

The network storage system's Copy Manager feature allows you to back up data
from the USB hard drive to My Book World Edition or back up data from the My Book
World Edition to the USB hard drive. See "Copy Manager" on page 123 for
instructions.
Important: When backing up data, always connect the USB hard drive
directly to a USB port on the network storage system. Do not use a USB
hub. Ensure that the destination drive has enough free space to store the
amount of data being transferred.
