LinkStation Expansion

LinkStation has two USB 2.0 ports on it, one on the front and one on the rear. These ports can be used for adding an external USB Hard Drive or a USB Printer, allowing everyone on the network to share the USB device. One printer or one external USB Hard Drive can be added to either of the ports. If you install both a printer and a USB hard drive, the printer must be plugged into the front USB port and the hard drive into the rear USB port. You may not install two USB Printers or two USB Hard Drives on a single Linkstation, only one of each device. To connect a USB device to LinkStation, plug it into one of the USB Ports and then enable it in the LinkStation configuration tool.

USB Hard Drive Information: See page 47 for information on enabling shared folders on a USB Hard Drive. Page 61 will show you how to format the USB Hard Drive. Page 57 & page 58 will show you how to set up LinkStation to backup to a USB Hard Drive.
