5.2.3 Drive redirection
The Drive Redirection is another possibility to use a virtual disc drive on the remote computer.
With Drive Redirection you do not have to use an image file but may work with a drive from your
local computer on the remote machine. The drive is hereby shared over a TCP network connection.
Devices such as floppy drives, hard discs, CD ROMs and other removable devices like USB sticks
can be redirected. It is even possible to enable a write support so that for the remote machine it is
possible to write data to your local disc.
