usb harddrive 800se

[xZEDx]

what format should i use?... for the external usb HDD when using as a media storage device mostly mkv's 720's & 1080's...

Fat32 is no good dude to 4GB file limit.
I've tried NTFS it did show up once in the media player but the next time round it didn't show anything in the HDD. do i need to initialize the hdd for it to work with 800se, when i go to initialize it asks to format the drve.
Does NTFS work with 800se?

I use windows 7

how do u guys use the External HDD with 800se?

got a similar setup on my SE Zed , Big arse 2tb hdd with loads of movies on , if you setup samba you can share the media around your home , i have xbmc devices plugged up to every tv in our house and it streams from the se perfectly

yeah i guess i need to setup a media server, the last one i had setup 4TB RAID, lost one of the drives and all 3 1/2TB of data went bye bye .. since then just havent bothered..
but with the 800se now, i'll have to, to make life simpler ;D
