The important things:
positive:
+ The hard disk is recognized without any problems and can be used without previous formatting
be used.
+ No problems with the USB power supply of the connected recievers.
Some hard drives "wake up" not when the Receiver from the stand-by mode
switches out in Record mode. The Verbatim has no problems
(Tested on three different Recievern).
negative:
- And here is my main criticism -> disk whimpers at irregular
Intervals during recording. This buzzing joined 3 tested Recievern
on (devices of Technisat and Comag).
The sound is similar at normal room volume of the TV no more
to hear. What bothers me is it especially when reading. (- 1 star)
- The USB cable is out with about 25 cm a little short.
Other:
positive:
+ The hard drive will be well packaged in a kind of foam delivered. This
Packaging can be perfectly re-use as a hard drive sleeve.
With a small incision just one channel for the USB cable must be made
be.
