HD200 Stand Alone USB Drive
Can't remember if we use the front or the rear for attaching the USB Drive. Then the second problem is how to get the USB Drive to be visible in the import directories, it says invalid directory every time I try to browse the files. Any limit on the size of the HD attached? this one is 3GB.
Is there a setting I need to do to convert this to stand alone? It used to be connected to my Sage, but that computer went down, now trying to get it to play some hard drive videos.

I don't think it matters where you plug in the USB drive, however, I have only ever plugged it in the front on my HD200s.
Make sure the drive is formatted as either a FAT32 or HFS (I can't recall if NTFS works...I think it does). I've been using a HFS+ formatted USB drive for 2 years now (since I switched over to 100% Mac for personal computers) with no issues.
