Helios64 can be used as Direct Attached Storage (DAS) with the required software configuration. It can also be used as "USB eMMC reader/writer" during system recovery mode.
## USB under U-Boot
### USB Host Port
USB Host support in U-Boot is quite minimal, it only support USB storage.
### USB OTG Port (USB Type-C)
USB Type C port is configured as USB device mode as USB Mass Storage connected to eMMC.
This function can be activated by pressing [Recovery Button](/helios64/button/#recovery-button).
This is to serve as a way to (re)install OS to eMMC.
## USB under Linux
!!! Info
Currently only applicable under Linux Kernel 4.4.
Mainline kernel support is still under development.
### Helios64 as Direct Attached Storage (DAS) device
Helios64 can be used as Direct Attached Storage (DAS) device with help of Linux USB Gadget kernel module.
The kernel moodule only export the underlying block device NOT the filesystem layer. Therefore if the block device is formatted with filesystem unique to Linux,
the exported disk may not readable by computer that has Helios64 connected to.
For example, the block device is formatted with EXT4 filesystem and Helios64 connected to Windows PC as DAS,
the Windows PC will not be able to read the disk content unless 3rd party software/driver installed.
!!! warning
Do NOT access Helios64 simultanouesly as DAS and NAS, as the filesystem is not managed by system and can lead to data corruption.
#### Individual Disk Exported as Separate Disk
To export all SATA disks that has been identified as /dev/sda ... /dev/sde, run the following command on Helios64.
```
sudo modprobe g_mass_storage file=/dev/sda,/dev/sdb,/dev/sdc,/dev/sdd,/dev/sde iSerialNumber=1234567890 iManufacturer="Kobol Innovations" iProduct=Helios64
```
The following screenshot, Helios64 connected with 5x 120GB SATA drive.

#### RAID device exported as One Disk
Assuming the RAID already created and identified as /dev/md/md-raid6, run the following command on Helios64 to export the RAID block device as USB Mass Storage
```
sudo modprobe g_mass_storage file=/dev/md/md-raid6 iManufacturer="Kobol Innovations" iProduct="Helios64" iSerialNumber="1234567890"
```
The following screenshot, Helios64 connected with 5x 120GB SATA drive and configured as RAID 6 so total space of the block device is ~360GB (3x 120GB). The block device then formatted with NTFS.
