Connecting and Managing a USB Hard Drive
Connecting
Connect a USB hard drive to the USB port on the rear of your My Book World
Edition for additional storage. The USB drive appears as a Folder Share in Network
Storage Manager. See “Folder Shares” on page 95 (Basic Mode) or “Folder Shares”
on page 129 (Advanced Mode) for details.
Note: The My Book World Edition supports external USB storage; USB optical drives (CD/DVD
combo or a DVD dual/multi drive) are not supported. The USB port currently supports attached
drives with FAT32, NTFS, EXT3, and HFS+J file systems. Proprietary devices (e.g., cameras) are not
currently supported
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 will receive a Copy Termination error.
Copy Manager
The My Book World Edition’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 “Click the Submit button to apply the
changes.” on page 162 for instructions.
The My Book World Edition’s Copy Manager feature allows you to copy data from a

Edition to a USB drive.
