Just to finish my tale fellas, I fitted the new HDD into my Manhattan Freesat recorder and it fired up OK and has been going great for a couple of days now. Seems to be doing all it should be doing. Keeping my fingers crossed!

Hi Malc, I replaced my drive in a HUMAX recorder a year ago. The drive I fitted was 2x the size of the original as that was what was available to me. Installed the drive, formatted it - all OK. The software reported the new size. The other day it stopped recording with the message "Insufficient space on the drive" reporting the original drive size.

The software is set to auto delete old recordings to make space for new recordings. It seems that one part of the software reports actual available space and another sets a fixed limit of the original drive.

I have now re-formatted the drive and it is recording again OK.
