BDP-2 S2.22 PNY 12GB thumbdrive ( other drives are SSD )
Guys:
Tried the above thumbdrive because the SSD drives were starting to get a bit too full. Put a couple albums on the thumy and after an Update all was well. Then one night I added another album to the thumbdrive from Windows Explorer and hit the sack being so late ( don't recall if I did an Update before knocking off ).
The next morning I opened MPAD and found there was no library at all. Not on MM either. Figured there was a power glitch over night so I powered down the BDP, but it powered down normally indicating no power outage.
Powered the BDP back up and executed an Update which took a month of sundays. Figured it was hung, so I powered down again. After which I yanked the thumbdrive and powered back up. An update was again slower than normal, but I let it go while having breakfast.
The Update did finish, but stopped in the middle of the library. Powered down / up again. Then went to the computer room and put the three albums that were on the thumy onto the internal SSD. After another Update, which was normal this time, ( 30 or so seconds ), all was well.
My question is:
Should I bother with thumbdrives at all? I think NOT!
Thanks, Rich
