N199, you have to partition and

format it on a desktop computer or a notebook first. The attached device will be
located at \\192.168.1.100\usbhdd\sda1\ where 192.168.1.100 means the IP
address of N199, usb1 stands for the first USB device, and 1 stands for the first
partition on disk #1, the USB disk drive. If it is an NTFS partition, NAS users can
open or copy files from \\192.168.1.100\usbhdd\sda1\ but cannot add new files
or modify existing files.

NOTE

If you want to write to an USB storage device, the file system must be FAT32.
