question about drive transfer

[fer]

I put an additional drive(from weaknees) into my RCA dvr40. I now want to put it into my new r10 from directv. Is it possible? I am not to worried about loosing my shows (I would like to keep if possible), would I need to reformat the drive, get a differant mount, ect. THANKS.

First, the shows would definitely be lost. They are partially on each drive generally, and can't move to a new unit.

Next, you will need to reformat the drive for the new unit. And you may need a newer bracket. We can do it all for you, but if you'd like to do it yourself, info is here:

before I knew not to use drive with xp I hooked it up to my computer with xp. I was going to try to unlock it but I dont have a floppy drive. can I send (or drop it off I work in westmont IL.)the drive to you to have this corrected, also to format it for the dirctv r10?

Sure, we can take care of programming your drive. Just send us an email here (info@weaknees.com).
