Hi all guys,
as in the object, being in the moment of buying a new 2,5 inches usb external hard drive to connect to my eGreat A5 usb 3.0 port, i would like to know which in your opinion is the maximum capacity that this mediaplayer supports for autopoweder hard drives on USB 3.0 port. I have read in this forum that 3.0 has 800mA capacity and that is enough to afford, for example, a 4TB usb hard drive. Indeed i have two Maxtor 4TB hdds that works perfectly on my A5. Would you think i could buy now an autopowered 2,5" Seagate usb3 hard drive of 6TB space without having issues connecting it to my usb 3 port? Should i format it in a particular way? (i know my 2 maxtor's are both NTFS and GPT but my windows 10 has set up GPT automatically i think, i don't know how to format specifically in pgt, i m used to format in NTFS and i am done) And what do you think is the max capacity supported on A5's usb 3.0 port for both:
- Usb 2,5" autopowered HDDs?
- Usb 3,5" HDDs with power supply?
Thank you in advance
