Ouch, my Tivo died

  • 아티클

The hard drive on my Tivo was making some bad sounds. Finally I saw this:

Ouch! I have one of the first generation Tivos, so it's almost 5 years old. It's not too suprising that the hard drive would die after all that time. I was able to easily order a new drive A from https://weaknees.com, and get things running again within a couple of days. I ended up losing everything on it though...

I really should have gotten a second Comcast DVR instead. I was so anxious to get my Tivo working again, I didn't give it enough thought. It has two tuners, it supports HDTV, and it would take quite a while for the monthly fee for a second box to catch up to the cost of the new hard drive.

    Hmmm, sure does look like a critical error :)

    We havent godt anything like TiVo here in Denmark, but i tried to build my own out of my computer and a TV-card.
    Havent worked out too well though, but now im planing to buy a PC and install XP-Media on it at some point.
    It should come out supporting the Danish tv channels and so on soon.

    I really just would like that auto record feature that TiVo has, we hear so much about here in Europe.
    So if anybody importen reads this comment: Start TiVo in Denmark, pleasssseeeee :)

    Weaknees is great. I bought a package (minus the hard disks) to upgrade both of my S2 TiVos (both using 300GB now). Too bad about yours crashing though. I have my original HD backed up and I know I would be upset if I lost shows that I had stored.
