Airport Express + USB Harddrive?
Hi guys,

Is it possible to use the USB port on the airport express to plug in a USB hardrive and use it as a back up drive?

I have tried connecting my usb external drive but am unable to view it on my mbp. Just wondering if I'm missing something, or whether it can only be used for USB printers as indicated on the blurb on the apple website.

Cheers,

J2nd.
