What size is my hard drive?
How do you check your Humax Foxsat HDR to establish the size of your hard drive. The reason I ask is that I am replacing one of my two units with the new Freetime box, which is on order, and I am donating the one with the smallest drive to a relative.

![]() Add together the used and free space for both partitions. If it's an early one it will have a 320GB drive. Only later did 500GB and 1TB (1000GB) options become available. Unless of course you swapped out the original drive. The numbers you get will be a bit smaller because some of the drive is reserved for the boxes operating system files. (cached epg, channel, recording reservation, media list etc) |

There's no money involved!
