    My 1TB HDD is very noisy. I have a new Seagate 1TB to which I would like to transfer all recorded material.

    I have scoured the forums for a simple way to do this, without success.

    I have a Windows 11 PC and two caddys into which I can put the old and new drives. I have tried cloning with Macrium Reflect. The process seemed to work, but when I plugged the new drive into PVR there were no programs recorded.

    Any help much appreciated.

    I’ve no idea why cloning doesn’t work.

    One possible, but likely to be very slow, solution might be…

    Put the old disk in a caddy and new disk in the Humax. Let the Humax format the disk. Plug the caddy into one of the USB ports of the Humax. Use the Humax menu to see if recordings are showing. If they are you can select and copy them from the caddy (ie. the listed recordings) to the internal disk. Could be very slow as for non-HD recordings the Humax is likely to decrypt them. Probably the HD recordings will just copy. .
