Hi,
I am ugrading to BH 2.05 and will be purchasing the Seagate 4TB drive for a new VU Duo2 which Shiro has kindly verified can be formated and accessed.
With my current VU Duo with a 1TB internal drive I have activated the Samba i/f and am able to access the media successfully from any computer in the house and treat the drive as a network drive for transfer of any computer media files.
Because of my unfamilarity with Linux I am unsure if there are any technical I/F issues I should consider with a large disk. All my computers are windows 7 but do not have the latest Bios which enables disks greater than 2TB to be installed in a windows operating system. Maybe that is not relevant?
Before purchase of the disk I would appreciate any comments re access to an internal 4TB disk by external devices with Window 7 Computers via Samba .
Regards
Dave Wood
