![]() ![]() ![]() I myself own like a 800 g sized portable hard drive which was working fine then suddenly I plugged it in my laptop and it starts making a beeping noise and the drive goes really warm, i got a message saying about software needed but I already had software installed, so I reckon there's maybe a virus that's trying ti attack seagate hard drives, maybe I'm wrong, I have not backed up my files cause to be perfectly honest why should I have to when I've bought this hard drive that's a bloody lot of money out my pocket and I cannot afford to be buying more as I am only a student, the work I produce has such as big memory size needed so it wouldn't be possible to even bring USBs into the equation. The more it seems like this is quite a problem for seagate hard drives. But if I can’t get this resolved I’ll take the unit back to BB and just say to hell with the whole thing. I’ve already returned a Seagate Freeagent HD Theater+ because the UI was awful.To be honest, the more I search for an answer to the problem for seagate hard-drives corrupting like this. I was really hoping this device would open up my music collection again, which has been sitting idle for several years. Is there a limit on the size of drive supported by the USB connection? I’m wondering if it has something to do with the sector location of the music on the disk? Has anyone else seen this problem? I even thought it might have something to do with the WDTV media catalog so I deleted that and let the machine re-catalog the disk. And some of the WAV files were even ripped on a different CD reader. I assume the wav files are ok because I can play them back in all the other wav players I have on my PC. The result was even worse this time, three tracks from the CD wouldn’t play. ![]() I thought maybe the problem was related to the ripping process so I ripped one of the offending CD’s again using dbPoweramp. The WDTV would cue up the song, sit there for a few seconds, and then give up and go to the next track, which it would then play fine. While listening to the fruits of my labors today, I noticed that some WAV files just wouldn’t play (different tracks in multiple albums). I’ve ripped about 200 GB worth of CD’s, in WAV format using WMP11, to a 1TB Seagate Freeagent portable drive. I’m using a WDTV Live with FW update 1.01.11. I’ve searched the web looking for posts about this problem but found none. ![]()
