Okay, I got my DTivo restored, and had it restored to a 120g drive. In the sys info, it shows "up to 35 hours"...

Did we do something wrong on the restore??

thanks!

Best to ask in the Upgrade Forum or Underground Forum.

I'm not an expert but I've done about 5 upgrades on my own.

It sounds like you did something wrong.

Isn't there an expand function or something that you need to do when you restore to a larger drive than the orignal drive was ?

Well, I didn't...A buddy of mine was doing it for me from the guide (on the web). sounds like he just restored the factory settings (40g) to the new drive (120g) and didn't "expand" the extra space.

I think 6.2 is downloading now, so we are going to let it, image it, and restore and EXPAND it.
Sound right?
