I tried a USB 2.0 hub that I have and it did not work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
So I went out and bought a powered USB 2.0 hub after reading people claim that they can get USB hubs to work. Tried the powered USB hub and it still did not work. I have 2 1TB hard drives, filled with my DVD collection. The problem is they are both full already, so I need to add another drive. With only 2 USB ports on the device this is not possible without a hub. I have roughly 440 uncompressed movies ripped straight from DVD (as ISO files). The setup works awesome! My whole movie collection is availible "on-demand". When I hook up the drives through the hub, it never sees more than 236 movies. So it seems to see some movies from each drive, but not all. This is even after a reboot of the device for a clean re-index of all USB content. Is there any way people have got this to work? What can I do here, any ideas? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Hub brands: Unpowered USB 2.0 4 port hub = Targus Powered USB 2.0 4 port hub = i-Rocks Thanks guys! |

Still can't get any of my hubs to work!
This is driving me nuts, I wish someone else with a lot of files could try this too. It is a shame that these forums are not busy, this place is a wealth of useful information. |

Yes it is a shame these forums are not that busy, but at least we have really tried to help you out with your problem. Have you tried to downscale the amount of media you have achieved on the drives? My collections is growing and I have yet run into the same problems youre having. |
