Of course you can but must be SATA hard disk.

Lightning69, can you get to buy Ac Ryan in Miri or any particular shop in Kuching maybe?? If yes, what price are they selling?

just as long as you dun select the format hardisk from the PoHD

what will happen if select format from POHD, i mean new sata HDD

then it'll format the HDD lor..

i know, but bro azbro ask not to press the format feature on the internal HDD ma,

will it slacken the speed or what??

gracias

HDD can control the speed wan ar ?

Sorry I mentioned it

what i really mean is, will the format throw in some bugs/partitions/rearrange sectors messing up the speed unlike using formatting in normal PC

thats y i was wondering, y kenot use POHD to format
normally, when you use the POHD firmware to format, it should speed (makes sense) up files retrieving faster rite, as the POHD might write some of their proprietory OS for better indexing of files....
So i was thinking y kenot use the POHD formatting lor

no problem,

he mean dun accidentally format your HDD lor..

if you want it to format by all means.. it won't kill your HDD..

Not in Miri, but I know a seller from lyn. You interested?

un...der....stood.....ed

one big confusion

It will create some hidden partitions for it's own use. It will use the the partitions as buffer (I think) to improve performance.

I also think your PC will still be able to use the drive as normal except for the hidden partitions. (disclaimer :- I don't have a POHD yet, but will own one soon this week )

congrats and welcome to the club !, u need big file mkv and not small one....go for those big size mkv as the PQ almost similiar to BD....if u want go for BDMV or ISO then u can get exact copy of BD !

remember to judge only when u using the remux source.

Thanks. Actually I am getting a mixture of M2TS and MKVs. But MKV difficult to get above 15GB.

No matter how big the MKV is there's still compression in action so do not expect a true 1-to-1 BD reproduction. You'll need BDISO or BDMV for true BD PQ quality. But it'll also depends on how big your LCD/Plasma/LED is & what resolution & how far away you are seated!

just get a bdiso like transformer,casino royale or dark knight with 40gb above shud do.remember compare apple to apple.actually if really serious to do comparison,use the hd references disc is better.
