I took it that the counters are real. The disk looks new, no marks or scratches. Fully sealed and direct from Amazon, not a 3rd party seller. Either way, it’s better than what was in there :)
Thank you, guys for your help. Hard drive arrived yesterday and I've just put it in. No problems whatsoever, recognised straight away and the Humax asked me if I wanted to format. It took a couple of minutes but it did it and the result is 2Tb total size, 1802.7Gb available, 20Gb used...

Thanks!
According to the web front end this is what I’m running (I’ve got 2 identical HDR Fox T2s running the same software / firmware):

Loader Version: a7.30
System ID: 80bc.7e00...

Seagate ST2000VM003 Pipeline HD 2 TB 3.5-Inch Internal Hard Drive - Black
£48.96, delivered tomorrow. I'll get it ordered!
Presumably, as I'm running CF 3.13, this'll go straight in and no need to mess with partitions and putting it...
I can confirm that the 9GW132-012 version does not work with the HDR Fox T2. I just made that mistake thinking I was getting like for like. Wish I'd have looked in this forum earlier!
Currently looking for a suitable alternative either 500Gb or 1Tb, but there are so many options, and I don't...
