R7000 loosing usb connection to SSD and HDD sporadically
Hi When I'm sometimes copying or reading files from my SSD or HDD attached to either the usb 2.0 or 3.0 ports on the R7000, it looses connection which is very frustrating. I noticed the USB light...
As far as I know SSDs do not require a third party driver as they are plug and play devices. Like I said before, the SSD requires more power than HDD surprisingly enough.
Anyway, I managed to get a refund on the SSD and instead bought a Seagate 1TB slim HDD which works fine.
Thanks for your help and time.
Hi Robbli,
For SDD, does it require to install a driver in order for it to work on a computer? If yes, it is the reason why it won't work with the router.
