[QUOTE="jonb, post: 161514, member: 198998"] According to what I've read on other forums some IDE drives don't work in Sky+ due to spin up times and you need to make sure to choose a drive that will not draw more current, so that the PSU doesn't give in and no more heat is created inside the unit. I'm not a techie, so I ended up buying an upgrade kit from XtendedPlay - [url]http://www.xtendedplay.co.uk[/url] They also set up the acoustic management to 'quiet mode' on the drive, so you don't have to mess around with the drive in a PC.
