Hi. New member here.
Just dropped in to ask a question, something I can't really figure out.
I had a setup which worked like a charm, until my hard drive quit. So now I have a new hard drive (2,5 500gb, formatted in fat32). But, this new drive doesn't use it's own powersource like the old one. The old one was always spinning, the new one doesn't get triggered by the wii. When I unplug and plug back in, it reacts and the wii sees it. But as soon as it reads, it falls back into sleepmode it seems. Am I missing something? Or doesn't this drive work with the wii?
I am using a Hitachi Z5K500 drive, and an encasing from Lightinthebox for usb connection. Anyone?
