HARD DRIVE FORMAT
WARNING!
Please note that any NEW
eSATA hard drive plugged into
your Moxi unit will be formatted
and lose all of its data.
External Storage Device
To expand the space you have for recorded programs, you can connect one external hard drive at a time to the rear
eSATA port on the Moxi HD DVR.
When selecting an external drive, keep in mind that the Moxi HD DVR only supports eSATA storage devices
marketed or certified for DVR use. And if you have the need for really large amounts of storage, Moxi supports the 4
and 6 terabyte configurations of the LaCie “4big Quadra”.
To set one up:
1. Plug the eSATA connector into the eSATA port on the rear of the Moxi system.
2. Wait for the confirmation that Moxi recognizes the external hard drive.
3. If this is the first time this hard drive has been connected to this Moxi system, or if the hard drive is not properly
formatted for any reason, the Moxi system will ask if you want to reformat the external hard drive. . (Reformatting
deletes all data on the hard drive). Select yes to confirm to reformat the external hard drive.
4. Once the external hard drive is recognized and properly formatted, the Moxi scheduler will include the additional
space in scheduling decisions.
To disconnect one:
Disconnecting an external hard drive while it is in use (playing a recording or recording a show), can
result in corrupting stored data.
1. Manually stop all recordings in progress by selecting the program card in the Moxi Menu, and then
choosing stop recording.
2. In the Settings category, select the External Hard Drive card.
3. Select disconnect, and then press OK.
4. You may be presented with a message that the drive is still busy. Please repeat the disconnect
process at a later time.
