Can I use this to replace the coax and how do I do it?** A: The 3 penny solution provided above works, but will only pull in stations within 25 miles of your home. I tried dimes once and it did increase my reception , but only be another 10 miles or so. Your best bet, if you are 30 or more miles from a station is coax pairs (pairing is important) one in and one out of a DC to optical TOS coax migrator (rack mounted versions are available) after re-installing Windows. Once that's all set fire up this 2TB storage miniature monster and you'll be getting gazillions of out of state CNN and FOX local news channels, not to mention all the stuff I wont mention cause it's too much typing. With all that set up I would be surprised if you didn't pull in the FCC. All at USB 3 speed! Do yourself a favor and don't monkey around with the penny setup unless or until you've been certified. But if you do go with making your own with cents, it's best to wear a mask to avoid any potential exposure to airborne zincoids discharging from the middle one. Either way it's 5 of one, half a dozen with one missing of the other. **Q: How do you make this work on the PS4 ?? It is telling us “device not supported”** A: Before it can be used as an external storage, when you first plug your drive into the USB port, on screen a question appears asking if you want to reformat your drive. Answer "Yes". And just about a minute it will be ready to use as an external storage drive. **Q: Is this ssd or hhd?** A: It is traditional spinning disk HDD **Q: Besides backing up, can I also add separate folder into Canvio that keeps some documents/videos which are not on hard drive and access them easily?** A: Yes. Think of it as a oversized flash drive. It can be used the same way ## Frequently Bought Together - Toshiba Canvio Advance 2TB Portable External Hard Drive USB 3.0, Black - HDTCA20XK3AA - UGREEN 10 Gbps Micro B to USB C Hard Drive Cables, 1.5FT USB C to Micro B, External Hard Drive Cable Compatible with MacBook Pro/Air, iPad/Tablet, iPhone, Samsung Galaxy S24, WD Seagate etc - ProCase Hard Drive Case for Canvio Basics Western Digital WD Elements My Passport Seagate Portable Backup Plus Slim 1TB 2TB 3TB 4TB USB 3.0, 2.5”, Samsung T9 Portable External Hard Drive Case -Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/245213714-toshiba-canvio-advance-2tb-portable-external-hard-drive-usb-3](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/245213714-toshiba-canvio-advance-2tb-portable-external-hard-drive-usb-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-07-19*
