Connecting The Reader To An External Drive - Intel Reader User Manual

Chapter 8. Using the Reader with Other Devices
When you finish copying files, disconnect the Reader from the computer, using
your computer's safe ejection procedure.
NOTE: If you disconnect a Mac from the Reader without using the Mac's
safe ejection procedure, or if the Reader shuts down because of low battery
charge while it is connected to a Mac, you may see one or more system files
in the Texts folder, such as the fseventsd-uuid file. To avoid seeing these files,
always safely eject the Reader from the Mac.

Connecting the Reader to an External Drive

An external drive is any drive that can be used to transfer data to and from the
Reader using a USB port. Using an external drive, you can transfer files to and
from the Reader. The files you transfer to the Reader must be in one of the
file formats that the Reader accepts, as described in the section titled Reader-
compatible Files.
The Reader supports the type of external drive called a flash drive. A flash drive
is a device about the size of your thumb that can store large amounts of data.
The Reader supports the FAT32 and EXT3 flash drive formats.
Connecting the Reader to a Flash Drive
To connect a flash drive to the Reader, plug the drive into the standard USB port
on the bottom edge of the Reader. A message confirms that an external drive is
connected.
