Ok, first of all I have put plenty of games on my HDD so I know it works fine. But now when I try to add an ISO to it, it will go about half way then stop. I have had this problem before but then I re-formatted it and haven't had any problems till now. Its a 500gb Buffalo USB HDD and I still have 402gb remaining. Is there a limit on haw many games you can have, or do some hdd's do this because of compatibility issues?

If anybody has any ideas that would be awesome.

Could be a compatability issue but I can't be 100% sure, how many games have you tried to add since this problem started?

I have tried 3 games all different sizes. It acts like it only has about 1-2 gigs of space left but I know that there is much much more. The file transfer bar stops about halfway and the hdd light blinks slowly. I have waited overnight(about 6 hours) and it was still only halfway. So right now, I can only use about 60gb of my 460gb of space. This is very frustrating.

Thanks for you reply wii nes boy.

[EDIT] - Also, just so you know, Im not a noob at this kind of stuff, its just either a hdd or wbfs manager problem.

I've not been paying much attention to the Wii scene off late due to other commitments but I can try my best to offer help. Run through the list below.

Did this problem appear after you made an update or made any changes?
Do you have the latest Loader? (Try a newer or older version)
Do you have the correct Cios? (I'm not sure of the most up-to-date), you could try using a newer or an older version
Your HDD could be on it's last legs, listen for it making clicking or grating noises as thats no. 1 sigh of failer

Ok, to answer your questions in order...

NO
Yes, Ive tried older and the most recent version WBFS Manager v.3.0.1.
Yes
My hdd is only about 4 months old, so Im pretty sure its not that. And no clicking sounds either.

I originally got the hdd for extra space on my pc and it worked just fine. The ISO's that are on the hdd play fine, Im just having trouble loading the ISO on to the hdd from the pc.

Is there any other pc app that allows putting ISO's on the HDD other than WBFS? Other than that im stumped.

Can you not rip the game on to the HDD from the Wii? I can't remember if you can then try it that way and see what happens.

gregerson316 · 2009-11-01 12:34:59

Thats a good idea, Ill try that out later today and let you know the results.

Sorry I haven't reported if it worked or not, still haven't had the time, been a lot going on. I deleted games to add more so I have to wait until i add enough games again. I try to report it asap.

No worries dude, I've had no internet connection plus I'm away from home with work right now and I don't have an internet connection where I work either.
