Hi i am running the Media browser from my PC and streaming it to the tv's in the house using now tv boxes.

i have just bought a 3tb hard drive for the server and wonder if there is any special settings/format that i should use when formatting it in preparation for the media.

hello

 

add your hard drive to your pc and under windows disk manager make sure you add it as GPT and give it a drive latter and you should be good to go

 

Good luck

Nothing too special, if you use MBR you wont get the full 3TB since its limited to 2.2TB.

 

Use either GPT or GUID for the partition table to get the full space of the 3TB, after that I use NTFS for the format.
