I've used a WD 2Tb USB external drive for music.

Andy, there may be an issue with the power demand on larger drives.Thanks, anyone tried anything bigger ?
So, I looked to keep all the CD/SACD/DVD-Audio decoding within the Oppo and for it to simply pass on the decoded analogue signal to the Denon.The UDP-203 is equipped with a 7.1ch analog audio output that can be connected to the 7.1ch
analog input section of an A/V receiver or amplifier for audio output. This method is required if the
A/V receiver does not have HDMI inputs. It is also a preferred connection method for taking advantage of the UDP-203’s advanced digital-to-analog converter (DAC).
Is that correct? I fondly imagined that once converted to an analogue signal that it would remain that way. Perhaps not then!but analogue signals still go through the digital domain.
Exactly!It looks like Mark is hooking up an 8-channel analogue audio connection
Thanks, anyone tried anything bigger ?
Is that one of those newish 2.5" USB powered 5TB HDD's?I have a 5TB WD in mine. No issues whatsoever.

I’ve got a 5tb hooked up and working fine.Thanks, anyone tried anything bigger ?
That’s the one I’m using.I've been looking at this Seagate 5TB 2.5" USB powered HDD model for £106.91. The capacity of these things are bonkers!
Is your's a 2.5" USB powered 5TB HDD too?I’ve got a 5tb hooked up and working fine.
I have one - very good.I believe this one is still available - LG WH16NS40
I've been using the ASUS BW-16D1HT drive with MakeMKV without any issues since Sep 2018. That being said, any drive you eventually choose will need to be re-flashed to make it UHD disc copying friendlyI just need to find a UHD drive so I can rip 4k discs to the drive.
If anyone has any recommendations again I would be grateful.
The latest version of MakeMKV includes support for Dolby Vision and Atmos tracks on branching discs. The latter would cause dropouts prior to the latest version.
I bought my drive from "asmcom" on eBay.
There is a dedicated sub-forum of MakeMKV for compatible UHD drives.
I've never used the Oppo for MKVs as I've always had a dedicated player; currently Dune 4K pro.
HTH

Amazon.com have what exactly?amazon.com also have them.
