I have addded my drive to the filters.
I have added my myself to the vboxusers group.
I have modified etc/fstab to:
usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=1000,devmode=664 0 0
My USB is still unavailable
What can i do?

Re: USB unavailable
You may wish to try this setting
none /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=46,devmode=664 0 0.
none /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=46,devmode=664 0 0.

Re: USB unavailable
I realize that this is probably late in asking but did you install the guest additions?

Re: USB unavailable
Out of curiosity what was the final entry you entered into the etc/fstab?
