Compatible devices and formats
This product allows you to record your
favourite programmes onto USB “Flash
drives”, sometimes know as a “thumbdrive”
or “pendrive”.
There are many kinds of USB flash drives but
not all are compatible with this product.
What USB device do I use?
USB2.0 HS
(high speed) is compatible and
should be used to ensure the best user
experience.
Avoid FS (Full speed) or LS (low speed)
devices as they will not work with
this product. USB1.1 devices are not
recommended.
What format should it have?
FAT32
- Most USB2.0 HS flash drives will be
formatted as FAT32. If you insert a USB2.0
HS flash drive and it is unformatted you can
format it. Please refer to Formatting on page
28 for details.
USB Hard disk drives can also be used,
provided they are FAT32 and are self powered
(ie have an external power supply).
Don’t Forget! Some flash drives are
partitioned and have secure areas. These
devices cannot be read by the box and
must be re partitioned on a computer.
