I have 1TB My Book Essential & 6TB My Book Studio II connected to the player. Every time I turn the player on, I have to replug the Studio II because it either doesn’t see the drive at all or the sort-n-filer option (green button) disappears because it can’t find or modify the database. Once in awhile the audio and video will fall out of sync too. I know it’s not a file issue because I moved the videos to the 1TB drive and they play as expected.
I’m thinking I have a bad player because another problem I noticed, whenever I eject a drive, it doesn’t switch to the other drive automatically like it does with the WDTV Live & WDTV Live Plus. It’s a little annoying since I disconnect the drives a couple times in a day. I’m not sure whether the devices are incompatible with each other or my player is bad. Anyone else get this working successfully?
