Hints & Tips

Data Dump - A big issue is the transfer of massive amounts of data onto your MvixBOX internal drive's Public (media) folder. The fastest way to the heart of your MvixBOX data storage would be to remove the Hard Drive, attach it via a SATA / eSATA cable to a Linux box, and transfer your media directly to the Public folder on the path: /media/disk/home/PUBLIC
