    Maxtor external Hard drive

    Hi all,

    Im waiting to buy a 500c (when they come back into stock on buyingthings!!!).

    In the mean time, Id like to know whether I will be able to connect up my external USB 500gig maxtor hard drive to it and use it to hold and play my films and music?

    Im currently using thr hard drive on my PC, and also sharing it through my XBOX..

    Many Thanks
    Tricky

      Thanks for the reply mate, but I thought I could plug it in directly. does the 500c not have a USB port? If not, which model does that would support it.. I'd rather have the hard drive mounted directly to the receiver, than on the network...

      Cheers

          I think you maybe confusing the dm500 with the Itgate 220 which has a USB port for attaching the drive directly to the box.
