Default Anyone installed a 250gb in a Sky+ V1 box?

My recording are starting to fail, so i wanna install a new hard disk, i've
heard rumours that the 250gb drive will/wont work

Has anyone actually had one working in a V1 (original) box?

I installed one in a V2 box, and even though this does not answer your
question I have had a few failed recordings even after a planner rebuild.


The HDD I used was one of the ones LIDL were selling a few months back.

You are very likely to have problems with the 17 minute bug if your
box version number is 2006 or less.
