Telnet is a protocol and you can use any program that provides telnet, so PuTTy (which is also my choice) will be fine. The HDR-FOX T2 won't know which program you are using.
Sit back and wait and see what happens. 8 reallocated sectors is not an issue. I once kept a hard drive on an HDR-FOX T2 running until it had 1500 reallocated sectors without serious problems but the glitches as it reallocated sectors mor and more frequently were getting irritating.
Over at MyHumax.org there are a number of reports of using a heat gun or hair dryer on the heatsink of the processor being successful with the problem of losing connection with the hard drive. See https://myhumax.org/forum/topic/humax-hdr-1000s-not-recognising-hard-drive from post #5 onwards.
Just install it. The FVP will probably format it automatically when it detects an unformatted drive; if it doesn't then Settings> Storage will offer a format option.
