Till last night I watched my ripped MKV DVD's via my networked PC. Unfortunately for the second time in 18 months I have a problem with my PC, which wouldn't surprise me if I needed 1 or more HDD yet again.
I have thereforbeen drawn to using External HDD's for when I buy my Media Player.
As`I intend getting the Playon Mk2, I shall opt for USB3 drives. For £180, I can get 2x2TB drives which is not much more than 3tb price.
The question on my mind is how would I connect then up. If say they were the WD MyBooks and I connect one to the Playon and the other to the first MyBook. Does it appear as I 4TB dive, 2x2 TB or does it not work at all.
I cannot stretch to NAS solution and would like to know if this would work.
Also do BluRay rips play OK from Ext. HDD or are they too slow.
Excuse all the questions and my naivity.
