Am I right in thinking that connecting USB drives to the Pogoplug there can only be one type (Windows; MacOSX or Linux)?
That is, I cannot connect a Windows USB drive AND a MacOSX USB drive at the same time to the same Pogoplug device?
Thanks
That wouldn't make much sense to me. I'm sure each HD can be a different format if you wish just like on a computer. I know that is the case because people are connecting flash (thumb) drives (FAT) as well as their native OS formatted HDs to their pogoplugs.

You can definitely attach different formats simultaneously. We here at Pogoplug regularly attach all six supported formats simultaneously to the same Pogoplug.

Katie said: If I have an external HDD enclosure that holds 4 HDDs up to 2TB each, and attach the enclosure via the single USB cable, does Pogoplug count that as 4 HDDs or one? Also, may I use one of the pogoplug ports to network a printer? Thanks!
Katie
Pogoplug should see your HDD's as you've configured them. If your enclosure clusters the 2TB drives into a single 8TB volume (ala Drobo), then Pogoplug should recognize the same. If you've configured each drive as a separate volume your Pogoplug will see four 2TB volumes. In addition, if your format a drive with multiple partitions, Pogoplug should recognize each partition as a separate Volume.
Please note each drive should have a unique name or these drives may not appear in http://my.pogoplug.com You can rename drives on the Settings page, below "Your Pogoplug enabled devices".

@Katie - at the moment there is no support for a networked printer - it's on the product backlog as a feature request
