RE: USB/DVD Power 9

Any USB will work. It might have to be formatted by and IBM system,
although with P9 I have not checked. It uses a UDF that makes it look like
an optical device (found under /QOPT) when you use it.

After it's formatted any PC can read/write to it.

Yes, exactly that. Doesn't appear to be anything special about it. Model
GP70N from Hitachi-LG Portable DVD drive. Complete with an IBM Power
Systems sticker on it!

Can you clarify? It is a separate drive enclosure?
Dongle kinda thing? Hooks up to the USB port?
