Thanks Martin. I've just ordered a 64GB from eBay, delivered free one day this week. Here's hoping...

Thanks Martin. I've just ordered a 64GB from eBay, delivered free one day this week. Here's hoping...If you have purchased from eBay then do check that the advertised storage is accurate as there have been well documented instances of these being bogus.
I have copied lots of material from my 2000T to a USB thumb drive. However, you won't be able to put them onto your new machine but just play them from the storage drive.

I can't see any way to load it onto the internal HDD for keeping permanently. It can play the material from the USB stick but that's it.

I did that in order to copy them in the first place Barry. However, whether something has changed in the copying process I'm not sure. Whatever the reason they wouldn't copy back the other way.
Mind you I copied them to create more room on the HDD so I don't really want to return them in any event.

So it is very definitely possible.

Did the same before #15 just to make sure nothing had changed as I only use a HDR 2000T as a test unit, not for normal recording/viewing.

I started this thread because I needed to know how to copy/move all my recordings from my 2000T onto a new machine - any make will do but it will probably be another 2000T.
After the very helpful suggestions you've all provided, I think I'm in the position where I will be able to copy everything onto quite a few very large USBs, but not then onto the HDD of a different machine. I suppose this may be to prevent infringement of copyright etc. So what does the average family (who know nothing about USBs) do when they just want to upgrade, and keep the various films, shows and whatever that they have accumulated of the past year?| Tue 29 Mar 2016 10:27:56 #19 | -

It is only Faust who thinks you can't; as both Barry and I tried and succeeded yesterday, I would suggest there is not a problem.

At a guess, they say it is only TV and wave goodbye to it.
