My 9200 is starting to act a bit weird (it appears to miss recordings but in fact sometimes they are there but look like a repeat of a previous recording in the recordings list..)
I'm pulling off the recordings (that I can find!) that I most want to keep and sticking them on our network drive as MPGs that I can access and watch through the PS3 - which is a slow process but I'm pretty happy with the end result..
I will then try doing a full reset and format of the drive - but I'm guessing that the drive might be on the way out.
I've seen a few threads about suitable drives, though the terminoligy is unfamiliar to me.. I think I want an ACE IDE ~ 500Gb from Seagate? But I can't find where to buy such a thing!
Any advice would be much appreciated. Am I barking up the wrong tree? I only found out today that it is possible to get hard drive error messages on the Humax. Since I've not had any, is it unlikely that the HD is at fault?
Cheers, Neil.
(As an aside - I did go to look at new PVRs, but I'm not particularly bothered about HD and reading the threads on AVForums there seem to be big problems with most of them! Most of the bugs on the 9200 eventually got resolved - and at least I am familiar with the remaining ones, so I'd really like to fix it..)
