Hi
I want to replace the 500G Seagate Pipeline drive in my Amstrad DRX890 HD box.
I'm not interested in copying over my old recordings as I have the Darwin EPG, which is
incompatible with Copy+
1TB is plenty and I threw in a Hitachi I happened to have lying around. All seemed
well with the fan etc on installation and I was able to record. I did a full system reset
as I believe that's the only way to release the full 1TB. After the box came back to life
the fan was on constantly and I could clearly hear disc accesses but all functionality seemed fine.
I've put the original disc back and before ordering a replacement are there any opinions on the most
compatible drives?
Amazon are selling the 1TB Seagate Pipeline for £56, but I can get a WD Caviar Green 1TB WD10EARS for €58
which could be eminently suitable.
Any other suggestions?
TIA
