Hi, I realize this forum might be "too advanced" for my question but I've been looking around on the internet and this forum seems to be the place where people with the knowledge to answer my question hang out. I've been looking for a standard solution to the following problem:
I would like to add a USB client port to a normal PC (mini-itx form factor) so that a USB host can access part of the drive of the PC as a mass storage device. I was wondering if anyone could give me advice about what approach to take. Is there a way to use the existing USB hardware currently on a typical mini-itx mainboard to accomplish this or would this require a large effort as far as development of both soft and hardware is concerned. Is there a standard solution available somewhere?
Thanks!
