USB Removables — Care and Feeding FAQs
by Lon Hooker
  The use of USB storage devices with eCS has been, until fairly recently, a rather chancy proposition. Some devices worked fine out-of-the-box, while others were not usable no matter what was done to them. But with the latest releases of the various drivers and other software involved, nearly all types of USB removables are now quite well supported. Lon Hooker explains procedures that should allow nearly all of them to be used.
