whats the differance beween a powered hard drive and a usb powered drive, ok two different sizes, and doesnt have a
change in if the system will crash, stardard usb gives out xx voltage which is enough to power the drive and exchange data, its the fact its external, the data needs to travell, so
hard drives off and use an hot swappable harddrive on a pc... job sloved, no problemo
acording to the htfr book, you can use an 2.5inch unpowered harddrive with the denons and cortex, i havent used mine yet, but i,ll report back once i do,
ok quick update, am here with my trusty cortex with my small 60gb usb powered hard drive, and its working a treat, i reckon if you keep the drives smallish, then they will be fine...
