I am thinking about upgrading my FOXSAT HDR from the 320GB to 1TB. Does anyone have any reccomendations as to which Hard Drive(s) I should be considering?

I also assume that I can use the 320GB as an external drive?

Thanks

You need a low energy CE (consumer electronics type drive) sata drive. Expensive at the moment due to the problems with production in Thailand down to the flooding. You can simply stick the existing drive in a sata usb enclosure/cradle and replay the existing recordings direct via usb.

Not really, not looked recently if it's any help mine came from Scan Computers it was back in 2008 though (Western Digital WD10EACS).

This is the current WD AV range
