Make shared PC drive appear as a usb hdd
HI.
I dont know if this is possible, hence me asking, I have a DVD player (yamada Chilli) that has a USB connection, and will accept USB HDD. What i would like to do if possible is make a shared drawer on a PC appear to be a USB hard drive, and connect the PC to the DVD player via a USB-USB cable. So is there any such software which would allow this to be possible ? Thanks in advance for any replys, Even if they are just to say "dont be so stupid" |

However, you could locate a USB enclosure box which will convert the standard drive to a USB drive. -- --- Y. |

Thanks for the response Yves Leclerc.
I do already have an external USB drive, a 2.5inch laptop in external enclosure, was just interested to see if i could do away with having to move that back and forward between the PC and the DVD player, ah well never mind Thanks again Yves Leclerc wrote: On 23/08/2006 "kevsgaff" wrote: HI.

You could locate a USB device sharing hub which will allow to to "share" the drive between the DVD player and the laptop. However, both need to be close to each other. -- --- Y. |

Oh yeah great idea, I did not even consider that idea.
Thanks again, I will go off and look for such a thing now. Yves Leclerc wrote: On 24/08/2006 "kevsgaff" wrote: Thanks for the response Yves Leclerc.
