I don't think that's recommended.

Not sure what you mean here. Clearly I can't be using the pre-loaded
s/w to backup from the Iyo, not that it would work anyway.
However I have a folder at the root directory of the SimpleSave which
just contains files which were created on the Iyo and transferred via
the Network drive to a PC and then onto the SimpleSave. I was hoping
to be able to access this folder directly from the USB port on the
Iyo. But the drive isn't wanting to crank-up.
