Thanks. When you say that I need to get the humax to format the drive to EXT3, how do I do this? As per my earlier comment, onm the Humax, I have gone into 'menu, settings, systems, data storage, storage, internal HDD, USB-1' and although I can see the the external drive, when I click...

Thanks for this. I started copying files onto the hard drive yesterday. It is taking ages to copy them (been going for last 15Hrs). It looks like the bigger HD ones (approx things over about 1hr 20mins) won't copy so I'm guessing my Buffalo isn't formated to EXT3? How do I check as my laptop...

I've gone with your recommendation and bought an external hard drive (buffalo Drivestation 1TB). It all seems to work just fine as I seem to be able to copy by SD and HD programmes onto it. My concern though is that I haven't changed the 'format' to EXT3. I have gone into 'menu, settings...

Ok, I think I'll buy an external HDD. Anyone know a good value one to go for(I've got a buffalo linkstation live NAS at the moment if that's relevant)? Thanks for everyone's patience with me on this.

yes the NAS has a USB port on it which I guess could be connected to an external HDD. to be honest, I don't understand why I can just use that USB and plug into the Humax, surely it's worth trying? Assuming that doesn't work, I wouldn't mind knowing what software changes I would need to do to...

wow, this is going to be more complicated than I imagined when I bought the NAS. Is there a thread I should read to see what I need to do to set the Humax up so that I can transfer info onto the NAS?

Merry xmas BTW. I can't transfer films/programmes from the Humax to the NAS either by using the Humax or laptop I've been able to put photos onto my NAS and can see those on the Humax in the 'network' section. I still haven't been able to move any films etc from the Humax onto the NAS though...

Thanks both for your responses. I have managed to get the drive up on my laptop (its 'L' drive). Am copying photos and music onto it (taking ages but guessing thats because it's a lot of data). When I go onto my Humax, I can actually see the photos on the 'network' drive which is great...

I bought a buffalo linkstation 1TB NAS this week so that I could free up some storage on my humax. The trouble is I can't seem to get it set up. I have read a lot of the threads but still haven't been able to sort it. Bit of background. Humax is connected to modem by a dongle (so I can see i...

thanks for all the responces. I've moved the router and modem into the lounge and the wi-fi now works perfectly so I can at long last get onto the portal! thanks

I've just joined this site as I have totally failed to get the wi fi to work on my HDR Fox T2. I think I've tried everything but I would really appreciate any further avenues to look at. Bit of background. My Belkin Router is upstairs, it works fine for other wi fi devices like my laptop...
