Donny, below is the link for the compatible hard drives for the T1. Known to work with it.

There are a LOT of 2.5 drives that do NOT work with the T1.

FWIW when I had my T1, it had the USB port freeze problem, which was fixed under warranty, BUT the hdd interface didn't work at all, even with a recommended drive. The info from Yamaha Australia was that it was NOT related to the USB problem but I have my doubts.. In any case I could never get a drive to work, even the recommended ones.

Sorry to say this but you will just have to experiment with other drives until you find one that works.

This is a KNOWN issue with the T1, which was apparently fixed on the T2

PS When I was researching HDD's for my T1, lots of people said that ALL of the ones on the list were proven to work, so it was probably just an issue with my particular T1.
