My external backup HDD, a Seagate 2TB has slowly failed on my pc. I cannot get to the bottom of this but I know the HDD is working because when I plug it into my Humax (Fox HDR) it can see all the partititions, folders and even play video files (though every step takes time). In the back of Hummy is a 1TB powered HDD and I have an unpowered 'my passport' to hand. The Hummy is on the network but only some files are visible and not any on HDDs.
What I want to do is to use the Humax to transfer as many files (mp3s, docs, allsorts) as possible from failing HDD to save them but is this possible (it has to be!) and what would be the best method?
