Hi Dr. here is further info regarding your Buffalo external hard disk issue from AC Ryan HQ:Added on May 3, 2011, 10:50 amopps...
but the buffulo disk still cannot use... will hang.....
If it is Playon!HD and Playon!HD Mini (1st Generation). It might be due to UDF partition on the Buffalo hard drive. This UDF partition is meant to store the bundled application from Buffalo such as encryption software or automatic backup data software. You can't delete this UDF partiton. Even if you successful remove the UDF partition, it would self-create again upon boot-up.
On Linux, this UDF partition is recognised as DVD-ROM. This issue also happens to Mac users when they are using Buffalo hard drive. It would automatic mount as DVD-ROM causing the system to freeze as the system thinks that it is a DVD-ROM and starts scanning for the DVD disc on our media players.
This issue would appear on firmware version v7.3.x.r4824 or any firmware that is based on the old SDK platform for Playon!HD and Playon!HD Mini as well as Playon!DVRHD.
From my understand, this issue has been resolved if the user is using v7.4.x.r2115 firmware release on Playon!HD or Playon!HD Mini.
For HD2 and Mini2, it should not have any issues as they are using the new SDK from Realtek.
This is very informative for you all. Pls. take note ya.
Enjoy!
