Making it "generally available" publicly would be frowned upon, for copyright reasons. However there are some of us who can privately help out for failed hard disk fix solutions if asked nicely and at a lot less than the prices you have been quoted - even free if you want to do the job yourself which is not hard for someone with some basic computer hardware knowledge.

While your comments about no NZ service centres is valid, and USA will not service an AUS/NZ unit, there are also other options open to people, especially if they can do some disassembly and send the relevant parts for repair.

The rest of your comments regarding your failed TiVo have been addressed in http://forums.oztivo.net/showthread....ng-failed-TiVo
