Hi, Isaac and List I don't know how one could find out, though I do know that certain types of drive such as the one I purchased (which is called an X's drive) do not have CE support. It's a pity, too, as the X's drive has both CF and SD slots for copying material from those formats onto the drive, so it would make an excellent backup unit for both PC and BN if it had the right drivers. As it is, it'll make a great storage unit for transferring large wave files from work to home, dumping recorded material from our digital field recorders and general backup.
Wish I could be more helpful but don't have the technical knowledge.
