No Dean, when I first plugged in my superdisk drive, and later, my Toshiba microdrive, and then entered directories through the file-manager menu, neither drive was on the list of available drives, until after a reset. However, this wasn't meant as a criticism, after all, the remedy was simple and quick and had only to be carried out once. My Braillenote now instantly recognises both drives. I only included my experience lest someone else might become frustrated to find initially that their drives weren't recognised. All the best Dean to you and the team. Don Cooper.
