Options for Amstrad 780 HDD upgrade??

Postby morrisp6 » Sat Mar 31, 2012 12:31 pm

Hi All,

I have been reading the various threads on here, and a little confused as to what the options are, and thought best to ask before i disconnect the box, and take it apart.

So i have a 320gb 780 model, had it for years, it has been Darwin upgraded ( as most would be by now ), and the planner is hovering around the 90% full mark ( thus wanting to upgrade )

I don't want to lose the recordings, and they are mostly Sky recordings, not FTA.

All the recordings are recent, so post darwin, just not sure what this means..
Can i increase the disk size without losing the recordings... if so is this limited to less than a 1TB ( this isn't an issue 1TB is fine ) ?

If i got a sky box with a bigger hard drive, could i copy the recordings from my 780 to it ?

What are my options then ?

Bit confused, so any Help is clarifying is much appreciated. :)

Cheers
Paul
