I suspect the problems people are experiencing with USB powered harddrives is because of the powersupply to the SBT. I use an old powersupply from a PC, the 5v line can deliver 25A of power and I have never had any problem. When I read the posts on the matter, there also seem to be a connection between a large number of individual files on the drive and crashes. That could be an indication that the harddrive is starved powerwise, larger database = more HDD activity = more power is required. I do not know for sure, just a thought. My HDD is organized with 3 files pr. CD (1 Wav file,1 CUE file and 1 folder.jpg file) that reduces the total number of files as compaired to storing the CD's as individual tracks. I do have one problem though, when I use the HDD for other purposes and reconnect the HDD the database is corrupted and I have to do a rescan. So I don't do that anymore, since then....no problems for over a year now.
