Well the story is a friend of mine has Sky+ and wanted to expand his capacity so he buys a 250GB drive which is already formatted or whatever to work in a Sky+ box from some dodgy guys who offered to install it but I offered to do it for him for free, they were going to charge him shed loads for an in and out job. Well anyway once I installed it and check it was working with his Sky+ box. So at the end he said I could have the old 40GB Maxtor D540X-4K that was in his box.
Well anyway I originally thought it was just a regular NTFS format (which I found it isn't till I cam here) so I plunked it in my pc and it wasn't being picked up.
So that is my predicament. I would like to use it in my PC as opposed to what most people here want to do and use a PC hard-drive in their Sky+ boxes
