Nice :)
I guess maybe the difference between a "designer for PVR" type drive and
a regular one is some kind of QoS thing like guaranteed minimum read and
write speeds.

After Clive was able to redo the partitions with it last night using gparted, I
was able to see it on my system this morning, and then installed KDE Neon on
it. This was vn 5.8 and it does have some problems, but I remember that it gave
me problems when I tried it before, so I might get an

I might as well bring a USB/SATA adaptor, a power adaptor and a short
extension lead. The more the merrier!

Ah, I see, that does appear to be a 3.5 inch model. Won't fit in my
laptop then. This might be a pain because we'd need a power brick and an
adaptor to plug it in to USB. I have a power brick I can bring if needed.

It's a standard size (3.5"?) disk out of a Humax 9150T which I seem to remember
has a proprietary format and is Western Digital WD1600AVVS HDD 160GB. I think the
AVVS nomenclature means that it is specially for video security systems or something
like that.

Hi,
An idea of which Humax model might have been useful.
My Humax Foxsat HDR had a fairly conventional partition table and
layout for a linux box. The notes from when I upgraded 300G to
1.5TB said the original was partitioned as follows:
/dev/sdb1 2G ext3
/reserve.info 745920
Is this laptop-size? I can bring my old laptop which makes it easy to
add a 2.5inch SATA drive.
We can then just pass it around and people can try different things.

Hi all, On tuesday I hope to remember to bring along a hard disk from my PVR.
it is formatted in a manner that I can't read except with the Humaxrw utility
in windows. If someone has a SATA connection device I'll be interested to see
if there is any way you guys can devise to read it.
