I was looking at one of our BCM400s and noticed the two USB ports on the front.I was wondering if you plugged a USB flash drive into one of the USB ports on the front of the cabinet, where would you go to to see what drive letter the BCM assigned to the flash so you could do a backup to the flash?

FYI.
I solved the mystery.
Nt may not support USB but BCM 3.6 does.
I found buried in the troubleshooting section of one of my manuals, a reference to reimaging the hard drive to factory default hooking a remote CD drive to the machine using the USB port on the front, or the IDE port inside.

Nortel's Bit Imaging Tool lets you use a USB CD-ROM drive to reimage the system, provided it's a BCM 200/400 running release 3.5 or higher (3.5 included the BIOS update for USB support).
Backups to USB flash drives will be supported in BCM release 4.0 - it'll work same as the BCM 50 USB flash backups do today.

I thought there was a service pack released for windows NT to support USB devices.
