Vu+ Newbie
Hi ppl.
I bought my Solo2 yesterday and works well.
Hi see that its possibel to put one internal 3,5" hard drive.
How i do it?
1º Do a chassi for 3,5" hard drive.
2º Hi bought an extension for alimention for CPU of a computer, and put one adapter to connect on Switch on back. to give 12v for the hard drive, because the yellow wire dont't have any power. (*)
3º Hi do some teste to Vu with 2,5" Hard Drive to see how mutch he consume.In this case is what the VU consume withou use the Hard Drive.
4ºHi do some teste to Vu with 2,5" Hard Drive to see how mutch he consume.In this case is what the VU consume initialization the Hard Drive.(consume more that recording)
5º Now hi do some teste to Vu with 3,5" Hard Drive to see how mutch he consume.In this case is what the VU consume withou use the Hard Drive.
6ºNow hi do some teste to Vu with 3,5" Hard Drive to see how mutch he consume.In this case is what the VU consume initialization the Hard Drive.(consume more that recording)
7ºThis is the case closed with the 3,5" Hard Drive
9º when we close the case is only one think to do.
Initialization the Hard Drive and see if is alrigth.
10º Now you can use your 3,5" Hard Drive. Only thing is wrong(bug) is that every Hard Drive apears as External
I see some peoples tell that the Charger can't support power with 3,5" Hard Drive, and for that i do the test.
Every test's are done on HD channel.
The charger have 12V - 3,5A who gives you 42W (teoric because on pratical have 44W)
How you can see on the point six he wave 2A consume, but e see on boot that the VU reached to 2,5A.
How he calculate how mutch power(W) consume at worst.For the worst i put 3A to have some clearance
The formule is P=V.I
P=12V.3A
P=36W
For this concluion, we can put one 3,5" hard drive without any problem.
