Just bought drive and loaded 1.5 tb of media to it, and when playing video off my WDTVLive, drive randomly stops and have to do a power reset… whats going on WD? Bought this because I expected it to be compatible and problem free! Did I have the wrong expectations? Do i return this drive and swap it for a new one or should I try a different brand?
Seems odd that a couple of people have this problem
try using the drive with your PC and see if the same thing happens
UPDATE: I’m able to play my media when connecting the drive to my computer and it does not freezing or locking-up… tested it over several hours without a glitch, when before, it would freeze up within 2 hours.
Guess I’ll just end up using the drive for archival purposes since I won’t be able reliably use it for media. Thanks for you help.
