using HD200 with USB drive
I'm currently using my HD200 on my network via wired Ethernet. i have two import directories defined which are on a hard drive in my desktop computer. All is well. However im going to have to take my computer down for several days.
I have an external 160 GB USB drive. what id like to do is dump some media files onto it and when my comp is down, plug it into the front USB port on the HD200. what im unclear on is how to point the HD200 to the files on the USB drive. note that it wont be able to scan my normal import directories because my computer wont be there. thanks for any help |

When you plug in the harddrive it should ask you if you want to scan.

thank you! that was all i had to do. is there a way to 'safely remove hardware" on the HD200 or do you just unplug the USB drive?
