Denon 2500 freezing

Denon HD2500 doesnt support NTFS so it isn't that.

Errr, you're not reading carefully, are you?

Steve's drives are indeed FAT32, because it's all his Denon will accept.

Mine are NTFS, because I use Cortex 1000/Numark D2, and because I'm a sceptical old git.

Thanks for saving me from pointing out the obvious Peter

It's been a long day sorry

So it all comes down to drive husbandry.

Another good reason to use NTFS or HFS if you're in the mac/numark world.

Vectis, I love how you give chapter and verse on my empirical findings. Thank you.

And it's even better when I can understand your posts.

And finding out that you are broadly in accordance with my views, well it just doesn't get any better than that.

Vectis, I was agreeing with every keystroke you'd made, and marvelling at your wisdom, until this point.

I forget lots of things nowadays, but I seem to remember NKR moaning that his Denon would "Hibernate" while Kev was singing, even with tracks cued on both sides.

Being a simpleton in these matters, I offered my standard reponse:

Leave the faders down, and both sides running.

Vectis, I'm not clever enough to tell the HD to stay awake, so I keep prodding it with a stick.

Yeah mine likes a nap and did it again tonight and would not come back to life until it was turned off and on again (emergency repair procedure 1). Never had it half sleep though.

During the last song at last nights gig my hd2500 threw a wobbler. I am going to use it for tommorow nights gig and if it kicks off again ive got all my cd's with me.

Then ill look at getting either a denon hc4500 or a denon mc6000 next week before next saturdays job.

The hd2500 comes complete with a free sledgehammer which has been used many times

just put mine on the 1400 firmware,can't wait to see what that does to it.

Ive just got the internal hardisk working again. Trying it out as we speak. I installed V1400 a while ago on this one.

There is a few changes from the original firmware.
