Can't see the hdd

WD Legacy Products WD TV Live & Live Plus
1

I bought my WD TV live plus about 4 months ago.

I bought at the same time a 500 GB HDD and all was working great until a few weeks ago.

First it started to **bleep** up and didn’t play any of the files and now i can’t even see the HDD anymore.

I tried to upgrade the firmware but no luck.

The HDD works perfect when i plug it in on the computer.

Would you kindly share the Model Number of your External Hard Disk Drive? This will allow more users to better help you.

Hi

I’ve got the same problem. Everything has worked fine untill I downloaded the new firmware. After that I sometimes can’t see my hdd where my movies are. Suddenly it can be invisible and, if I’m lucky, I can see the hdd after a paper clip reset. Then everything works for a time, but suddenly…gone again.

The hdd with musicfiles works perfect. I´ve tried changing between the USB ports, but that doesn’t help. My hdd is a

2 Tb WDBAAU0020HBK, and I have another one for backup, but it doesn’t work either.

Any ideas??

Deagle, that drive is a 3TB WD Elements Desktop External Hard Disk Drive, 3TB External Disk Drives are not fully supported by WD Media Players at the moment.

Hi

I think the problem is solved. I rolled back to firmware 1.04.22V and so far everything seems to work fine. 

Something must be wrong with the new firmware.
