HDD), plug the USB cable directly into the back of the receiver.

With the Vantage you can use a USB Hard Disk Drive which is either externally powered or
powered by the receiver itself.
When formatting a HDD for use with the Vantage ensure that is formatted as FAT32; FATEX
and NTFS is currently not supported by the Vantage.
Windows XP and Windows Vista do not allow formatting of FAT32 on devices larger than
32gb, so to achieve this a third party programme will need to be used.
