Hi Carlo,

the best solution is to open the Audya case, unplug the HD form Audya and plug it via an "USB to IDE Adaptor" to a PC.

The the copy-process needs only 30 Minutes !

Donīt forget to use the "sector-copy" mode, otherwise your backup will not be correct !!!

AfaIk formatting an USB-Stick is not possible with Audya.

If you canīt write on it : Is it possible that itīs write protected ( sometimes these small sliders move while plugging in the stick ! )?
Whatīs the Filesystem on the stick ? You should use FAT32 instead of NTFS.
