XTGold, that might have more to do with the fact that the drive is bus-powered than the speed of the drive. These receivers simply don't put out enough power through the USB port to keep a hard drive spinning reliably. I've had success using a Western Digital Passport bus-powered drive on my Visionsats, but have never tried one on the S9.

the receiver wouldn't even format the drive,it would lock up.
I had to format the drive with a pc then try it.
I ended up using the drive to back up a pata 160g drive,then
using the 160g pata drive in an external i/o magic case.
