Title: Sky HD Box
Post by: Stallion on 20 August 2014, 23:30:24
Anyone aware of what size Hard Drive is in a samsung sky HD box? Or been through the route of changing its hard drive? I have looked online, most places say either 320gb or 500gb. But il be sticking in a 1tb in there, so thats not my worry, but what most fail to mention and what i want to know is wether its a 2.5" or a 3.5" so i know which to buy? Thanks in advance guys

True, but i thought if any one knew from the back of there head then saves the trouble getting a neighbour to open it up twice, thats all

The ones I've looked at have been either 3.5" IDE (older ones) or 3.5" SATA (newer ones)..

Is it one of these? http://www.techradar.com/news/television/how-to-upgrade-your-sky-hd-s-hard-drive-603193
