Hi Guys

I am using vu solo blackhole 2.0.3 version , I am able to set up the external hdd and able to record and timeshift however every time I switch on I need to initialize the Hard Disk again.

I read a post in another forum, saying that I should try this:
1. hit blue --> blue --> Devices Manager --> red (Mountpoints) and make sure it is mounted to /media/hdd
2. hit red to save and then restart!

The problem here is that my hard disk does not show under device manager.

However, after I reboot and lose the initialization, the hard disk DOES appear in the device manager and this time I can go ahead and do the mounting. But after the reboot the same problem persists.

Can you please help me what causing this ? I am going crazy over this and I cant get to resolve it :(

If it's an USB unit, you should use an externa power supply to your HDD or hub usb to avoid power problems between box and your HDD.

I think it's sufficient a good hub usb with external power supply. Select one of a good company and not a chineese one.
