External USB Hard drives.     A major benefit for users of the Casablanca ‘S’ range is its ability to accept USB storage devices such as an external USB Hard drive. However, not all USB hard drives are the same. Some, which are designed with PC users in mind, have back-up software pre-installed. The ‘S’ range of course do not recognise PC software and this can cause issues when it auto activates or tries to run this software. As the software is often installed in a separate partition it can be very difficult to remove even by formatting it on a PC, and often requires the download of a special partition removal software package from the manufacturer.

A further issue which has come to our notice is a problem with the Western Digital (and possible other brand) 3Tb USB hard drives. Not only Casablanca

but also PC’s running Windows Vista and 7 in some circumstances are unable to recognise the full capacity. We therefore suggest avoiding this and other 3Tb models for the time being.

To ensure smooth operation with backups, archiving and Store n Share, we recommend using a “clean” device, one with no other software installed such as the Seagate Expansion. These are available in 1 or 2Tb capacities and are “powered” by their own mains power adapter. Having provided these with some of our promotions we can verify that they are easily recognised by Casablanca and provide trouble free operation. Seagate Expansion hard drives are available at most pc stores, Maplins, Tesco, Makro and of course through Amazon.
