will this work with USB 1 and or USB2? Also would like to know if any one has been able to use it with a Media player device like Boxee Box or Roku.

Yes this External HD work perfectly with USB 2.0, I have a Macbook and work well.. I think if you devices ( Boxee or Roku) have usb 2.0 should work well.. I hope I have helped.

Hi Trevor, this works with both USB 1 and USB 2. I use it as USB 1 and it works great. I'm not sure if you can use it with a Media Player device.

I tested this and it does not work. It tries to mount both as USBDisk_1 - so only one will actually work correctly.

It works with any USB adapter. But mine stopped working about 3 months in. Don't know what happened. Wouldn't reconend buying one

It works with the DISH Hopper. You can even watch the shows saved on it without transferring them back to the Hopper. It uses USB 2.0.

You have to check the features off the Smart TV.Normally usb at TV levels are for pictures(cameras etc.) and mp3 music.streaming a High Resolution movie requires Caching and video related hardware. if Smart TV says it does mp4 then your movies have to be in that format. This USB is backward compatible. What you as is more off feature on the TV than this unit.If TV says it does avi,mp4 no problem. i have a cheap core2 duo optiplex and use Big Tv Screen as monitor,and watch anything i want. hope this helps

Yes it will work with USB 2.0 plugs. I used this on my pc desktop 2.0 USB plugs and it works fine.

I have the roku 2 & it works with it. There was no setup or anything. Just put the batteries in, point & click.

Cleo,One more thing is that USB is backward compatible so a USB 3 device should work just fine in a USB 2 port or even a USB 1 port for that matter.Regards,Charlie

I have an advice for you; throw that piece of crap and buy this one [G-Box Midnight MX2 Android 4.2 Jelly Bean Dual Core XBMC Streaming Mini HTPC TV Box Player]. If you really want a 5* Media Player that's The One!!!

I think it does work with both usb 2.0 and usb 3.0. ( I have multiple computers and some have usb 2.0 and some have usb 3.0 and I don't know which and which.). They all work with my clickfree. (you can ask the question on youtube.)

This box has both USB 2.0 and 3.0, so the 2.0 will work for sure, not so clear if the 2.0 can be replaced for the 3.0 or not?

Yes it will work with USB 2. You set up a couple of jumper switches to set which raid mode you need. One word of caution, the manual doesn't make it clear at all, if the drives you are using are already set up in a raid format, get the data off some other way first, this device will wipe the drives clean, as if starting from scratch

Your player should have a mhl port on the front for you to insert the Roku, I believe. The port on the rear is the USB port only. Hope it'll help.

Hi Tim., first I must say that I have enjoyed my media bridge, one of the best products of this sort on the market, as far as your question I have a Roku also and as long as you have hdmi connections on both devices it will work just fine. Sincerely Arthur McBride

Your question is not clear! From what I understand, the other functions of this unit WORK; but the USB alone is not OK, correct??/ If that is the case, you will have to try attaching another device in the USB slot and see if it works and much the same way, try the device on some other port on another connection in the computer and see if it works!! I do not think there is a categorical answer to your question!!!

not completely true, i have 1.1 usb and mine works fine, but 1.0 usb i dunno. everytime i plug it in it tells me "the device can perform faster" with a usb 2.0....

It's a standard USB and MicroUSB cable. I haven't used that particular model of media player, but based on an image web search, it does not use a standard USB connection. This cable would not be suitable for your device.
