Humm, I wonder how one would know which drives would work and which
will not?
I use my I-Omega 120GB drive with my Braille Plus regularly with no
problem. But, I wonder if it has more to do with the technology in
a particular drive, the size of the drive and the load it is putting
on the Braille Plus, or something else?

Hi. I just tried it with a passport 250 gb drive. It didn't work.
The drive
kept stopping and starting. Doing a six and two showed only the
three
drives, hard drive, internal flash and network.

Subject: [icon-discuss] Anyone Successfully Using Western Digital
Passport
Drive?
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!
