I think my HDD is about to give up.
Our main HDR-FOX T2 has started popping up this message at random times during playback of recordings, along with random breakup/pixilation and time skips, and an excruciatingly sluggish UI navigation when trying to access recordings.
I have disconnected it for now and was about to do some diagnosis at work, before I realised I left the remote at home. (stupid I know).
For now, I have updated the CF to latest version as this box was on 2.17
Does my analysis sound about right?
The drive and box are getting on for 10+ years old, as I replaced the drive right after purchase.
I took a chance when I did the drive replacement as I just used a normal WD Green 1TB, but it's lasted all this time with no issue.
When I get it home tonight, are there some steps I can take on the current drive to see if it really needs replacing or just a clean up?
Cheers.
