[QUOTE="jastewart, post: 783464, member: 239366"] I have a 7020 which has been running faultlessly for years now, and I now want to take pre-emptive action and at the very least prepare for disc failure and probably replace the HD. I am well acquainted with doing this in Windows etc but not with Linux and the Dreambox. What I simply want to do is: - get a new HD (what are the size limits, if any? - or best/preferred brands) - create an image of the entire existing HD (recordings and all) - copy this image to the new HD (which may be larger than my old drive) - install the new HD in the 7020 - enjoy more years of faultless running! Any help greatly appreciated James (Used disc/disk for best search results for others trying to do the same thing) [/QUOTE]
