Hi i'm just wondering what you all would recommend for a cheap compatible 500GB HDD for the H2S ?
Thanks

All usb powered drives are OK. Just connect it in the rear usb connector.

I prefer one with its own independent power supply. bog standard, nothing special - I do notice that it takes a tad longer to start up with a large hard drive on though

I've never had a problem with unpowered drives. Keep an eye on Hot UK Deals. They pop up quite often. ;)
