@ RoderickGI: “I’m sure WD are aware of the issue, and hopefully can provide a solution in firmware that doesn’t involve unacceptable compromise, like risking the reliability of the transfer process. I hope it won’t require an upgrade to hardware, and hence buying version 2 of the product.”
Yes they are as I have a support “ticket” about this.
Exactly my thoughts that a firmware would fix this if possible.
BTW: Friends please, if you want to discuss things in depth please start a new thread of the matter and just post a link to it in here. Easier for others to follow the mian questions. Thanks.
