How do you work out the the box is only using 1TB?
Remember the percentages on individual programs are rounded up so you can not usually tell from only a single recording.
Did you ensure the spin control in Copy+ was set to 2tb ( full size of the disk) before copying?

thanks for your reply , we couldnt work out how to set copy+ spin control to copy the full 2tb , when we had the box wired up to the pc it was telling us that there was only 1tb recognised .
