ReadySHARE lets you access and share a USB drive connected the Trek's USB port.
The Trek works with most USB-compliant external flash and hard drives. If your USB device
requires nonstandard drivers, it is not compatible. For the most up-to-date list of USB drives

Connect or Safely Remove a USB Drive

The Trek supports both read and write for FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, and Linux file systems
(EXT2 and EXT3). Some USB external hard drives and flash drives require drivers to be
loaded into the Windows computer before the Windows computer can access the USB
