Hi i am hoping someone can help me. I have a brand new linkstation Pro Duo LS-WVL/E diskless. I have two WD30EZRX 3Tb drives to go into it. I tried installing both drives and following the buffalo movie for starting up a new LS-WVL diskless unit. The blue light comes on and just keeps flashing, only way to stop it is by pulling the power lead out. I then tried it with just one drive in and it works no problem at all. I then tried to install the second drive again and the same thing the blue lights starts blinking as if it is booting up and it just will not boot. I swapped the drives around and no change. It seems like the second bay is not working correctly or i have done something wrong, can someone help please.

Thanks
gorby

Have you got the latest firmware installed? I think you need the newer firmwares if you are using above 2TB drives.
