External USB disk drive on an Integrity server

I have a customer who wants to connect an external USB disk drive to an Integrity rx3600. Can this be done and what are the procedures?

Thanks

Currently, HP-UX does not support USB hard drives or USB tape devices..."

I actually was able to mount a flash drive successfully. I did read that others had issues with this. At this point I would not recommend it.
