When connected to GoFlex Home, a USB drive appears as an External Storage folder on GoFlex Home, next to the Public, Personal, and Backup folders. To add a USB drive to GoFlex Home, connect it directly to the USB port on the back of the GoFlex Home dock, or use a high-quality USB cable (not included). See Figure 2 on page 7 for help locating the USB port. (You can also connect a USB hub to GoFlex Home, then connect additional devices to it.) FreeAgent® GoFlex™ Home User Guide 66
