USB disk on a Fortigate 100

Hi, Does anyone know if it is possible to plug a USB external hard drive on the Fortigate 100 and use it to store the logs, quarantine, content archive ... I have tried to plug a USB disk but it is not recognized and so I cant format it. Cheers, Fabien

As of MR5, any USB flash drive will be recognized. I' m very pleased to see this change. I don' t know if a hard drive would work however...and given that only firmware images and backed up configuration files are supported, a hard drive seems a bit overkill!

In any case the fortikey is not designed to accept anything but firmware and configurations (and a whole bunch of fortinet docs etc). There is no facility to put logs etc onto it.
