Connecting an external Disk

So I have had this Tablo Quad for a few years now and it had an external Seagate drive connected to it and it was working perfectly until the other day. I kept hearing a beeping sound and it took me days to find it. It was the external hard drive connected to my Tablo. I have never heard a hard drive beep before!!!

So I had a new 2tb USB SSD drive and plugged it into the tablo. Now IT IS BEEPING!! Now that is the second time ever that I have heard a drive beep. Can anyone tell me what is going on? BTW, the new 2TB SSD isn’t recoginized by the tablo :frowning:

Would you consider reaching out to our technical support team: https://tablotv.com/support/#contact ?

They should be able to narrow down the cause.

Beeping caused by low power to SSD?

I tried that but I got a person that spoke terrible english and I couldn’t understand more than about 30% of the words… Then they sent me an email telling me to unplug my storage and try and record… DUH, really you want me to record with no storage. Big surprise, the error message said NO STORAGE. I guess that is what happens when you unplug your storage, but tablo support didn’t know that.

I guess it is time to give up on tablo, throw this thing away and look for an alternative solution.
