Does Mi Box support Western Digital Element drives?

Can you do more than 128GB flash drives?

Thanks!

What makes you suppose there is a limitation on size or the Brand of hard drive? I think all that matters is the interface and the filesystem you're using.

definitely. I'm currently using a 500GB WD Hard Drive in a non-WD enclosure.

I've added a 5tb powered external hard drive and a 2tb portable drive.

Both work fine with a standard usb hub

ExFat drives encounter some problems, though.

IIRC the Mi Box can take up to a 2TB drive, unless I'm confusing it with the Roku 3 which has likely been updated since getting rid of mine..?
