[QUOTE="Joseph Howarth, post: 387941, member: 20227"] Hi John, SS stands for super speed (USB3.0 basically). I can only assume that the current requirements of the camera and portable hard drive are too much for the USB ports on the front so it gets enough power to light up but not enough for a stable connection. I've had an issue before where the portable Hard Drive 'led' would light up, but when the motor began to spin up the platters inside; the usb wasn't sending enough juice so the connection would disappear, the appear then disappear. With regards the shutdown, I have never had that problem from a USB slot, if there was an issue it would immediately shutdown, not 'soft' shutdown. Something to look for; the USB headers for the front panel are sometimes coloured differently, one for high current like the picture below (the two blacks are normal, the yellow is high current) [IMG]http://archive.benchmarkreviews.com/images/reviews/motherboards/DZ77GA/intel_dz77GA_70K_lower_right.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
