I've had success with 1 TB drives, but want to move to a 3TB (any brand) and wanted to know if anyone has tried and had success? I only saw up to 2TB in the DIOS/MIOS compatibility chart and haven't found the answer by searching, so trying this route. Any info is greatly appreciated, as is all the help this site has given me. Thank you all.
If you have a brand and model that you've had success with please post here and or pm me. Thanks.
NO experience at all, as I'm not rich enough to buy that many Disc from Wal-Mar.
If you put every Wii game ever made on a drive, scrubbed, I doubt it would fill 3TB. Seems like overkill.
I have about 61 games on my Wii and I'm only using a little over a 100gb.
I can live with a 16GB USB flash drive, and make my family & friends very happy ! :D
A WD Elements 2TB (not SE) will work just fine. Unless, of course, you are a pirate and want every game published...:rolleyes:
yoyo33 any luck? I'm lookin to get the same model.
no one seems to have tried it and i haven't purchased because it is usb 3 and might not work, so still waiting for a reply from someone who has and hopefully who has had success.Quote:

I have a Seagate 1TB which is both USB 2.0 and 3.0 compatible and it works fine for my Wii, if it matters. I've heard that devices only compatible with USB 3.0 are problematic, though.
