The only thing to bear in mind is if you wanted to simply swap hard drives the donor TiVo needs to also be modded otherwise the hard drive won’t have the software patches to make it get guide data. So you’re back to square one needing someone to help you with some computer skills.

If anyone can help Ian he just needs someone to load up a hard drive with the TiVo software. I’ve supplied him with the pre patched image and winmfs.
