Hi ,
I have an project where in i need to share a USB mass Storage Device
among two HOST PC's. The hosts would not use the Shared resource at the
same time. So I planned to use 4 SPDT Swithes to switch the Storage
device when ever required. When I did implemented this, I found that
the Mass Storage device was not recognized by either of the PC's. Could
anyone explain the reason and method to implement such a solution
Regards
Make sure to "eject" the storage device, before you push the
button. That is to make sure any info cached in Windows memory,
is flushed to disk.

I would want to demonstrate that your USB storage device works
with both computers first. If you cannot do what you wish to
do manually, by moving the drive from one computer to the
other, the above switching device will not change the
results. The storage device must be proved to work first.
