    Will an SSD work in an HDR1100S

    If you don't mind me asking, how long has your trial been going and what make did you go for?

    Will an SSD work in an HDR1100S

    Many thanks for your kind offer but I've just had a look at the HDR Fox Forum that Black Hole suggested and the general consensus seems to be that SSDs aren't a good idea for this application.

    Will an SSD work in an HDR1100S

    Hi Martin, Do we have any idea what 300TBW means in real time use, it seems like a lot of data, but what about the "Rewind Live TV" . That will be recording the broadcast channel all day long. SSD might not be a good idea.

    Will an SSD work in an HDR1100S

    I thought it might be quieter than a hard drive and maybe cheaper? Just a bit of an experiment really.

    Will an SSD work in an HDR1100S

    I was thinking of putting a larger drive in my HDR1100S and wondered if anyone had tried an SSD? I'd be interested to hear from anyone who has done this.

    HDR 1100S upsetting my Mutant

    Thanks for all your advice. Unfortunately, trying new cables and earthing failed to resolve the situation, the Mutant has gone now and has been replaced by a Foxsat HDR which works fine.

    HDR 1100S upsetting my Mutant

    Thanks Rodders, I'll go ahead and try the cable between the boxes. For your information here is a link to the cable I used:- Cable

    HDR 1100S upsetting my Mutant

    I never realise that could be an issue, would connecting the metal chassis of the boxes together achieve the same thing?

    HDR 1100S upsetting my Mutant

    Before you all start shouting "Boo Traitor" I'll apologise in advance, but the Enigma Machine is not a replacement for our Humax it's a replacement for Sky. I don't like the things I've read about the Arris Freesat Box, so I bought a Mutant HD51 Enigma 2 box with 1TB hard drive. I like the fact...

    DTR-T4000 Proper Instructions

    I wondered if any one knew the location of a complete set of instructions for the DRT-T4000. I can only find the user guide and not all the detailed "stuff" we like to know.

    Sorry about that, I was brought up when it was good etiquette to be polite. It's a hard habit to break.

    I'm going to our local Mall tomorrow, I'll see if Curries or John Lewis have one on demonstration. Maybe they'll have a Manhattan too. I can try that at the same time.

    I think the FVP-5000T sounds like the one for us. We don't do file exporting but we do have a TV in the bedroom. Is there an "output" facility to hardwire to a second TV. By the way, via the link in your Signature, I've read the Newbies' Guide and I won't be saying Hi or Bye on future posts.

    Hi Brian, Thanks for the info regarding Freeview/Youview. We took out our Sky Subscription "pre-covid" and managed to get it dramatically reduced when covid hit us in the pocket (down to "just" £25.00). "Post-covid" we are not in a position to pay for Sky Q, so at the end of the contract it's...
