this is a noob question...

but i have just bought a 1.5TB WD(Green) SATA drive...

do i just plug it right into the side-slot of my dvico 6600 and im good to go?

does it require formatting(like how needed to work on PC? the the dvico does that for me?

A happy owner of a 6600 reporting in

Just wondering how other owners are storing their media...

I currently have 7TB of data spread over six individual hard drives...

While the dvico's feature to swap drives easily via that nifty bracket is cool... it can get tiring when dealing with six drives...

Anyone is using some of those multi-bay docks that take 4,5,6+ drives at once? i think Icy Dock has something like that...

Would be nice to have my hard drives all stacked up and connected via a single wire to the Dvico...

just connected (via USB )a Hotway 4-Bay SATA HDD Enclosure, filled up with 4 x 1.5TB WD Greens to my Divco 6600

The Dvico was able to read(in addition to it's own hard drive hooked up internally) files from ONLY two of the 4 harddrives from the hotway. These are accessible via the TWO USB icons fom the movie menu.

This was a disappointing discovery as it negates two of the four disk bays...

When connected to my My PC, i am able to access all the 4 bays without issue...

I guess NAS is really the only way to go for those with large number of files...

Looks like I'll be buying a Dune soon then!
Where to buy ah???

your icydock is just 4-Bay HDD connected via USB or eSata? no RAID/Network connection?

htkaki wanna lelong your 6500 to me just lemme know

hi guys just to confirm.

i attached via USB 2 x 4-bay hotway enclosures, with a total of 8x2TB hard drives on board...

the dvico 6600 was only able to discover up to SIX of the hard drives (not all 8)...

im hoping for a firmware in the future that will allow for the device to handle more than just the 6...

tried the same files on PC?
once in awhile my dvico has some files it cant open(or no sound) that my PC with VLC player can play
