I have successfully used a Western Digital Passport drive to copy music to my Icon. It is a drive that is several years old, it works with the Icon, the Pac Mate, and the Braille Note. It is an 80 GB drive. -----Original Message----- From: icon-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:icon-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Guido Corona Sent: Tuesday, April 15, 2008 6:53 PM To: icon-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [icon-discuss] Re: Anyone Successfully Using Western Digital Passport Drive? May the problem of incompatibility also have to do with file format on the drive? Isuspect that if NTFS is used on an external drive, BP and ICON may not be able to access it.

Hi all. I searched the list archives and saw several messages earlier this month and in September, 2007 about people using, or struggling to use, the Western Digital Passport drives with the Icon and Braille+. I'm thinking of buying one of these drives, but want to know whether I can expect it to work with the Braille+. If you've had problems with this hardware combination, did those problems persist when the Braille+ was connected to AC power? What did you end up using for an external storage solution if you abandoned the Passport due to it being unusable with the Braille+? Thanks in advance!
