Does the hard drive have a external power supply ?

I think because of the internal drive previously used that will still be mounted on your fstab.

You could try pop the sats drive back in unmount it and then try the usb one again. The DReam ellite image is poor for mounting and device recognition.

External hard drives powered from USB only do cause problems the 800 does not have enough power to cope with them.

Well you already have internal sata drive so even if you get a powered usb drive it is tricky to mount the 2 together.

Why do you what a external hard drive as well as the internal?

I suggest you just stick the movies onto another network accessible drive then mount that on the DM. You can also stream to the DM using VLC.

I can confirm that usb powered Harddisk and an external powered usb hub works great. No problem.

Hi Asaphus
Could you advice on the Hard disc you use if any? I'm planning to buy one and I'm looking for some advice.
Thanks
