There's hardly any ram, that's the biggest issue wet stability. It's also stuck with an ancient version of LMS. -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.

No USB device that offers a choice of power inputs would be certified as a USB device if it allowed the multiple power lines to be bridged to each other under any circumstances. Have to say I've never seen a usb HDD with a 5v input though as all the portable drives generally run straight off the USB port and all the desktop drive ones run off 12V. -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.
