I just recently purchased a WD 1TB USB2.0 external hard drive for media storage. It is connected to a Macbook Pro (2.4ghz Core2duo, 4gb ram) which functions as a server. I am using another Macbook Pro (same model) which can access the server over the network. Music files are stored on the External HDD and are played through songbird on the wireless Macbook Pro. Under energy saver preferences, the box titled "Put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible" is left unchecked.
While playing music, audio lags every few seconds, sometimes for a second ... sometimes for several seconds. To suggest it is distracting and annoying would be a serious understatement.
Any ideas?
