A:AnswerI ran into a similar issue with my Samsung tv while back though it may not be the same issue. The Samsung tv requires an MBR
Drive partition which is limited to 2TB so probably supports a GPT partition to get past that limit. That said, not sure why they have
a 3TB limit. FAT32 file system maxes out at 8TB with max file size of 4GB but tv can easily span files if needed. NTFS file system tops
out at 256GB and EXFAT goes beyond that. I had to contact Samsung customer support several times to get the right answers to get mine working so wound up using my 1TB Easystore for that purpose and repartitioning and formatting the drive to get things working.
I would suggest buying one or two of the 3TB drives instead. If you buy the larger drive then likely not able to use the extra space unless there is a software upgrade for your tv that removes this limitation. I have heard that not all televisions will work with hard drives. You need to check your owners manual to see if your tv can support using a hard drive. You may need to use an SSD type which Best buy also sells. Just remember that 3TB is enough space to store hundreds of full length movies and guessing about near 800 of them. You might have to contact LG support for the answers if the manual is no help. These drives are great so you can use it to back up your laptops and your digital music collection if you can't get it to work. Good luck.
A:AnswerNick... All you do is plug this WD digital drive into your computer USB port. It transfers data via the USB cable AND it uses the low voltage current in the computers USB port to power this device. Since there are no moving parts it needs very little current.
A:AnswerMike, No. You do not have a problem. You can easily copy videos to this WD device (these "drives" are fast particularly with USB 2 and 3 ports). And it works with the old school USB 1 port too. Videos take up a lot of space so this device is perfect. And this device comes formatted and ready to go for Windows computers.
