  Thanks Ezra & MymsMan. (That is the position of the thread link). To expand, the issue I have with the thread link not being uptodate is it becomes extremely challenging to follow to arrive at issues, if any, with the cuurent release. That is precisely where I was (and still am) in trying to...

  As a consequence of my hard disk failure experience (see: "TELNET session with HDR-FOX-T2 Failing") I decided to replace the hard drive. It appears that the original "Seagate pipeline" disks have been phased out so I went for a "Seagate ST1000VM002" 1tb one which appears to be almost the same...

  Yep, the box works fine as a receiver, all menus operate except when referring to HDD when they are greyed out or, in the case of media options, only show music, video or photo options. (Shows HDD icon in top. right corner as white disc with tiny black slice and states HDD not available). So...

  Sorry, I don't want to appear doubtful but surely the operating system boots from the hard drive? As I can power off /on and the box boots up then the disk must be seated, surely.

  No, I only use a USB device for firmware updates and don't leave it in afterwards . There has been for many, many months a HUMAX USB wireless network dongle on the box and that's what I'm communicating to the box through. This pre-dates my problem by a year or more.
