I am new to this site, please could you send me image for 1 TB and 2 TB many thanks
Hi baz7795,
From your posts, I assume that you are trying to upgrade a DRX890 with a drive larger than 1TB?
If it's a 1TB drive, just do a "Full System Reset" after installing the drive and it will correctly format to 750GB Personal/250GB Anytime.
If you're trying to install a drive larger than 1TB, you will need to use Copy+ to initialise the disk - but to do this, you need to pull an image off an existing Sky+ drive. Unfortunately, I think you've found that with the latest DRX890 system software, Copy+ can no longer see the drive - so no way to pull the image off the original drive.
I am happy to send you the vanilla XTV image if you furnish an email. It was pulled off my DRX890 drive prior to the latest software update. It will work whether the drive is 1.5 or 2TB. Suggest you spambot-protect your email by posting it as eg: myemail_getridofthis@somewhere.com. It's 10MB, so you will need a mail server like hotmail or gmail which will accept large file attachments.
You can then open this image with Copy+ and transfer it to the >1TB drive. Once this is done, you can put the drive back into the box, it will do its thing and you should find it works just fine with 250GB Anytime/Remainder Personal Recording Space. (ie: For a 2TB drive, 1.75TB Personal/250GB Anytime).
Note that you will not be able to transfer any existing recordings from the old drive. This is only to allow the >1TB drives to be initialised for use in the DRX890.
