Hello everyone!
I have a WDsharespace 4TB (http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=501) connected to my snow leopard mac mini (as a media centre)
I dont know if i have it added correctly to my system?
I have connected it via ethernet cable ...and to mount the device i have to type in (smb://169.256.67.248)
This then mounts to my macmini it asks which section i want to mount (public/my name/etc) i click the 'public' then enter admin name and password...
Hey presto its now on my desktop!... it seems a real ball ache...
Not only that but every now and then it stops ' being attached'? (over a long period of being on when 'inactive')
I DONT know anything about setting i.p addresses but i would presume you can set one of these things up so it just always stays mounted??
Any help on this would be great! as its starting to get me down
