[QUOTE="GT1608, post: 918151, member: 21692"] Hi all. Been racking my brains about this one. I have the older DStv Explora with the 2TB hard drive. Reading many different threads it seems the 2TB HDD has 3 partitions, unlike the new Explora 2 HDD (1TB) which has 2. The new Explora HDD also used the Linus Ext4 file format (from what I've read). So a few questions: - Does the DStv Explora 2TB HDD also use the Linux Ext4 file format, or MS file formats? (which ones are supported?) - What are the exact partitions sizes of the DStv Explora 2TB HDD? - Does the DStv Explora format function create everything you need if you install a new 2TB HDD yourself? Would really appreciate some expert guidance here. [/QUOTE]
