Apple TV hacked with a USB drive for enhanced storage
A group of users at Apple TV Hacks has found a way to get the USB patch on the Apple TV, making it finally hacked to use a USB hard drive - eradicating the monotonous task of banging that device open to install a bigger hard drive.
The main issue for the development is - lack of storage capacity in the original version of the Apple TV. Therefore, this outbreak from geeky hackers who have managed to hack the Apple TV allowing an external USB drive for the device - as the TV's primary storage, that'll enhance the patron's media storage, is highly appreciated.
Initially hacking the drive isn't an armatures call, coz you'll require a external USB an Intel Mac, and shouldn't forget to mention the SSH enabled on your Apple TV - it also is a droning assignment to follow a command line, but if you're good at the instruction work, you could just do fine. There's another hang, if your Apple produce is updated with the 1.1 software edition, then the hack isn't a use, coz it won't work, you'll have to set it back to the factory setting to get this work.
If you manage to get the hard work done simple, and have accomplished hacking the external drive - congrats, you are now with an Apple TV embedded with a much larger storage capacity.
AppleTVHacks has apologized to its clientele for delaying the release of the patch, and are aware of the dissatisfaction amid users with the unit's capabilities - but the organization is looking for ways to simplify the hack procedure, making it more user friendly and compatible with the 1.1 software edition.
