USB-Harddisk driver for some external HDs
painless (further information)

TPP Auto Loader Application. Background task installed with the drivers for DataStor’s USB 2.0 based external cases for DVD, CD-ROM, and CD-Writer drives, or also installed by the Ahead’s InCD packet writing software (direct write to rewritable CDs). Many DataStor products are re-badged by other manufacturers so this task will be found in other manufacturers’ products (e.g LaCie).
