Hey..that looks like a Vantec clone...hope the price is lower than it

So far there are two firmwares have been released, if I update the firmware, can I straight away update the latest released firmware? or must update one by one? any POHD users can provide some guidances?

Also, it seems that the remote control is very important since we using it to control everything on the POHD, can we buy stand alone POHD remote control? (in case the remote is spoiled....touch wood )

Thanks a lot in advance!

Get yourself a universal remote controller...its being discussed here:
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1202313

guys.....anyone know where can i purchase POHD in KL beside the one in PJ which currently out of stock?

Currently both distributors out of stock, so as all their retailers, as far as I know . The stock will be in end of next week and heard that a lot of promotion will be launched by individual retailers also . I found this website: www.boxbuilder.com.my got all resellers info.

Aisay, Lowyat lah, where else Unless they also out of stock.

To be more specific, at Lowyat - try C-Zone, Viewnet. I think also got one shop in Midvalley Megamall (2nd floor) selling as well.

bro barry,
y need to format HDD with that, Computer also can .... rite..
ain't all new HDD pre formated?? or you mean, this Gadget, automatic mark "bad sectors"
but nowadays with the hitech era, really didnt come across or heard anyone mention bout "bad Sectors"

Am i missing something here
or is it for other functions besides Fat/NTFS and features...
thks

hi moomoos,
if you're getting a brand new naked hdd which is usually unformatted, its best to let the pohd format it for you, just to be sure that the pohd will work 100%. otherwise, it will ask to format the hdd everytime you boot up.

oic... so its regarding the internal HDD on POHD case

thanks for the tip
Gracias....!!

i already call boxbuilder plus all the reseller and went to lowyat all no stock...well if its true its coming i hope the price will drop .....

I believe Boxbuilder is the main distributor plus there is another minor one called Advance Tech System.

for the torrent download function,
do we have to key in login id and password

the downloading speed is it same with computers

Gracias

ID/PW will only be required (if the site requires it) for downloading .torrent file. Once downloaded, just use the .torrent file

download speed is dependent on your connection speed, which in turn depends on whether your ISP throttles p2p or not

Still got people use torrent to download one ar?
