[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 1011615, member: 243342"] Morning all from sunny Somerset, We have a relatively old but functional Sky HD box from 2010 (Amstrad 890 something or other). It's getting a bit sluggish and we are constantly fighting for space or its tiny 500gb drive, so was thinking about upgrading it to the 2Tb model. My question is whether I can transfer our recordings from one to the other. I know there's a program called ExPVR which can apparently do this but will the new box still play the recordings from encrypted channels with the original card? I get the card paired to the new box. Also, is the drive in my 890 box SATA or IDE? And does ExPVR work with SATA/IDE to USB converters? [/QUOTE]
