The HD needs to be formatted Ext3 by the Slug.

When I was initially configuring the slug (right out of the box) it picked up my external HDD fine – it was NTFS formatted though. So I decided while I was in there to format it .ext3

So that is done. I was just wondering if I could add the files now…

I’m not familiar with .ext3 file format but I was thinking that putting on my 36GB of .mp3’s would be a good idea before I proceed as this will take up an almost ‘permanent’ chunk of the drive and be less susceptible to fragmentation —- should this be a concern?
