And does anyone have a recommended supplier?
Seagates use to have a three year warrantee, and increased that a while ago to five years. So you may wish to check with your supplier or a local Seagate distributor to see what the story is.
To copy a Tivo image from one drive to another boot the OZ Tivo image and exit to a prompt and use:
Code:
mfsbackup -l 32 -6so - /dev/hda | mfsrestore -s 127 -xzpi - /dev/hdb
This will not transfer any recordings, but you could try and run the mfsbackup command without the "-l 32" if you do wish to maintain those recordings.
