Thanks Tim, I was looking at a site that sells you a 80G drive w/ the TIVO software on it already so it's pretty much plug and play. I was going to get a second HD locally and dd the other drive to it. (Hey, I paid for the software once already right?).
I was hoping to clone the 2nd working drive, however it die on me before I could make the switch. kw On Tuesday 05 February 2002 23:39, you wrote: > I upgraded my TiVo last night from 20 hrs (20 gigs) to 118 hrs by adding an > 80 gig drive, was a surprisingly painless operation.
