1. What formats supported for hard drive connected to the Satechi Smart TV? 2. How do I delete a file which is in the download folder?

1. The TV Box supports NTFS, FAT, and FAT32 file systems. 2. To delete a file in your download folder select "edit" on the top bar of the Files screen. Now select "delete" and choose which file you wish to be deleted. For further assistance, please email support@satechi.com. Thank you, Satechi Technical Support

I'm not sure. According to the WD TV live owner's manual, the WD TV live unit looks at the format of what's on the external hard drive connected via USB.

A little more info would be helpful. I.e. What type of computer you are using and what software you are using to use the drive. For example, I use a Macintosh computer and use makemkv software to rip blu ray movies and use blu ray player software to play movies.

I have MANY movies stored on it and I can watch them normally, no issues detected. Audio and video run smoothly. I have both Black and Green. I think you'll have no problems using Blue. It's transfer speed is: 6 GB/sJust an advise: the movies for an 80" display/TV should be downloaded in 1080p resolution (full HD), so that you don't get a grainy image. You can also store the movies in the HD, copy them into a pen drive, plug it on the TV and playback them directly from the pen drive, I do this every time I want to watch my movies. Anything else you need, please, feel free to ask me. :-) I have MANY movies stored on it and I can watch them normally, no issues detected. Audio and video run smoothly. I have both Black and Green.

Wondering the same thing. It says "any hard drive", but does it support advanced format drives (4096 byte sectors instead of 512 bytes). All drives >2TB use this format, and many 2TB drives do as well.

you can connect blu-ray drive with sata port on motherboard with a Pata port, but as i can see the bandwidth is not enough to watch movies from BD.

I've sucessfully done that with my 128GB Patriot drive. Just be sure that the video format of the files on the drive is supported by the TV you have.

Sure you can download files in the PC after you install it an operating system and a hard drive, but I don't know the quality when you try to watch it in your TV. I use mine for recording videos from my security cameras

Sorry...I don't have a TV. I use my computer to download all my cable video entertainment from the internet and watch videos on my monitor. However, I'm sure you will need some kind of a portable "multimedia player" installed on the Toshiba hard drive to play audio/video files on a smart TV. I took a look at a LG TV and it had both 2.0 and 3.0 USB ports. So unless the TV has "multimedia player" capability of its own you are going to have to bring in this capability from the Toshiba hard drive. You might want to take a look at DVico's Slim S1 [combo hard drive & multimedia player...] this unit connects usb/hdmi to a TV. Sorry...I don't have a TV.

There is no hard drive but you can plug a big on e into the USB port. I have a 2 TV drive that works great.

Received mine recently -- also sans any manual. Fortunately, you can download it readily from wdc.com at http://support.wdc.com/product/install.asp?wdc_lang=en&fid;=wdsfWDTV_Live. Unfortunately, it is less than 'comprehensive' re: setup for MediaShares/etc. to utilize files/photos/videos/etc. from a NAS-server or networked computer. I found many forum and user tips with a simple Google-search, however. It's a jiffy little unit, nonetheless...especially since the lastest firmware-update.

How? I hooked up my portable hard drive and it did not work! Problem is, its NTSF and not FAT32 formatted. Tried to reformat, and no go there either.

I'm not sure but maybe you have to reformat the drive! Right click on the drive and then select format. Be careful, if you have any files there it will deleted. Hope this helps.

Well it depend if u have enclosure sure you can do it if ur smart tv have usb entrance and support external drive Usb, if you bought it sure you can, but if u are thinking to buy it better get a regular hard drive more cheap and also more space to put it like external drive. You should give more details about your smart tv for know if this have internal hdd and other things that will help for give you a better answer.

Nope not the one. I'm waiting for a solid state True Full HD (1920x1080) 30p solution. I couldn't care less about HDDVD BlueRay compatibility. I'll be playing the files from HDD of HTPC. I'm considering Sanyo VPC-HD2 as interim camera.

Hello Stephen - Really great question. I am a big fan of the ProBox. I have three of them running for a total of 36Tb with all 3Tb drives. I have never lost a single KB of data and never had a failure. Every once in a while on of the RAID will drop off and turn itself off but not that often. OK, your question. I assume all Smart TVs are basicially operating under a similar format. I have a LG 3D TV with all the latest goodies. Soon as I can, i will test one of my RAIDs and get back with an answer soon as I can. I am running MacOS drives so wonder how that will effect the TV formatting. Ed

apparently it has no harddrive. You can easily purchase an SATA harddrive and it will work though. Search on Amazon for SATA harddrive you wont need a big drive I got a 320gb and works fine, more then plenty of space for tons of video 24/7
