Hello folks,
I was going to tackle this matter within my PS3 thread, but I couldn't be sure that PCH people would read it.
I bought an A-110 a couple of weeks ago and, although I continue to be excited by its potential, I'm becoming frustrated.
For a start, it looks like the external (independently powered) USB hard drives I own aren't compatible with the A-110. When I connect them, the PCH 'thinks about it', but the drives don't appear on the GUI and, after something like two minutes, I get an error message to the effect of "request cannot be processed". Does this sound to you, the people who know about the A-110, like a typical drive compatibility error? If not, could someone help me to get these drives working? I'd rather not throw away 2TB of storage for no reason...!
Secondly, does anyone have any idea why I'd be getting audio dropout when playing back DVD rips (in video_ts folder form) from an internal hard drive? I mean, the transfer rate required to playback DVD video and audio is hardly intimidating. I would expect this playback to be perfect.
Thirdly, is it just me, or does an internal hard drive get ridiculously hot? Like, touch-it-and-it'll-burn-your-finger hot. Surely, this must cause some performance problems?
Thanks for reading. I hope you can help.
DH.
EDIT: ... and Merry Christmas!
