    QUESTION - What Bugs or Usability Issues do you have with your Hopper?

    Hopper/External HD issues

    Yeah, I had already unplugged EHD numerous times for various lengths of time. The only thing I have not tried is to have them rehit, although they said unplugging the hopper itself would have the same affect. I will try that tonight or tomorrow AM and see if that helps.
