Cloning/Fixing Failed HDD

[Newcoppiceman]

I would have given up if this much work was needed to repair one of my discs, after all it's only telly and I can stream on catchup most things I recorded recently anyway. Fortunately fixdisk has always worked for me.

An interesting admission! Having previously been gainfully employed by the BBC and Channel 4 the expression "It's only television!" is one I'm familiar with. Now everything's working again I'm looking forward to the second half of last year's Crucible snooker and various TPTV series I'd gotten behind with. I'll try not to record quite so much this year, I think.

I should add I run two HDR Fox T2s at my house and set everything to record on both boxes. One uses AR and the other padding, this gives me redundancy of which recording method works for that programme. I mostly watch HD channels so being major channels AR usually works. But this setup also gives me redundancy against a disc failure.
