I have a 2 bay hard drive enclosure with two 4tb drives can I connect it to this device to Play my HD movies through my Samsung smart tv DLNA?

NO.I've tried this configuration as well and realized that NAS only recognizes the first HD in bay. Could not find any workaround for that so, I decided go for a 4 bay NAS storage. Currently I use this NAS as printer server only.

In theory, you should be able to; but in practice, I cannot say for sure since I do not have a Smart TV to test this theory out. If you already have the capability to play HD movies from your computer through the Smart TV, then the odds are more in your favor. Once you connect the external hard drives to your computer, then it should be just a matter of selecting your new NAS drives as the source.

If your box appears as a single drive,maybe. be aware that this adapter will change the format of your drive and although you can still read it, it might not work in your situation. The manual not too clearly states that it doesn't work with USB hubs, and if your drive enclosure treats the two drives in that way, it won't work. Back everything up first, and be prepared to reformat your disks if it doesn't work.

I have no experience with HD. I would ask your question on an HD forum. There, I bet you would get an answer. Good luck!

Yep. My Seagate Desktop 4TB HDD had no problem connecting, so you should have no trouble.

Yes, you can connect an external hard drive using one of two USB 2.0 ports (front or rear), and can then watch movies stored on the connected drive in any of the supported formats. If your external drive requires more power than one USB port can provide you may need to consider an externally powered drive like the WD MyBook or similar.

I have mine connected via network and also attached to that network is my NAS and it works great. From reading the manual you can also connect the NAS straight to the media player via USB, Ethernet, or SATA and all should work. As for the BD3D ISO it should play with no issues depending on how your media is being fed to the box. If over network your network has to be strong (Wi-Fi may not cut it).

Think you may be confused. The D-Link 325 is a NAS(Network Attached Storage) device and is connected to a home network. Your Smart TV can access it if the TV is DLNA compliant and capable of playing the movie file formats you plan to store. Pls read up on NAS devices and your TV before you buy.

yes you can. I am currently running two of the 4 TB NAS drives from Seagate and I left the others empty. The device is scalable in that way however you will need to backup data on your current drive if you later want the added performance or redundancy of adding it to a RAID array.

Yes you can if it connects by USB. You can also connect over a network if the drive is shared and skip the wires.

Yes if your WD HD is connected to the wi fi . If your HD has USB. You can connect that to the WD TV play USB input and it will play from there with out Wi Fi.

Hmm.. not sure.. theoretically it should work but I didn't want to chance it. So I took my separate external 2TB drive and connected it and it works perfectly

Yes it connects easily to external USB HDDs. The limit is 2TB, have a 3TB and had to partition it into 1TB and 2TB partitions to use it. It is a great little Android box. Turned my "dumb" 50" flat screen into a "Smart TV" at a fraction of the cost and far more powerful & scale able than any Smart TV currently on the market. I was really surprised how small the device itself is. Finding the right wireless keypad has been the challenge.

I'm not familiar with those. I use it to show movies and TV series from a 2TB hard drive. Works good for that with a great interface.

I don't have that hard drive but my HD doesn't work with the hub so I suspect yours probably will not work either. The HD is one of the few things that doesn't work.

No but you should be able to connect your tv to your network and access the files on the NAS if it is DLNA compatible.

Thanks for your question. This wonderful piece will communicate with a NAS or PC using DLNA. I don't believe that it will connect directly with a hard drive. The complete users manual is downloadable on the manufacturer's site. This is a wonderful shopping tool. This is a fantastic sounding receiver.
