What drive is in the WD MyBook 8TB Enclosure

Hello, newbie here.

I bought an 8TB MyBook for my TV and films to plug into my Sony Bravia USB and using Sony Media Player to watch.

At times either the TV or the drive is being a right sod, films can sometimes take ages to load, some have padlocks on the files, at times it states the folders are empty.

Does anyone know what drive is inside, is it a RED or BLACK?

I decided on an 8TB drive as I have four 2 TB drives with various tv shows, films and season boxsets but having to manage four HDD was awkwards, so opted for one large HDD to hold everything.

Any advice would be appreciated .

Hi DMR,

The reason might be that the Sony TV does not support large capacity drive or not enough power supply to the drive
