Yes you can do that, S.M.A.R.T will still be accessible.
Take a picture for me of the inside, I'd like to know what fan it uses.

You'll void your warranty... getting a swap out at DSTV will be cheaper than buying a new HDD, never mind the hours trying to duplicate the structure & encryption, but let us know how it goes
True, but should he have a HDD lying around he doesnt need to encrypt it, the decoder will format it accordingly.
I did do a replacement today as it was only R600, i thought it would be more expensive.
At multichoice, I saw the decoder working, but when I got home and plug it in no signal.
I tried a reset a still, no signal and Tuner 2 says recording in progress.
When I called the helpdesk they said i must get a installer out, but #$#@ changed in the installation, but the decoder.
Any ideas??
Just thinking of cancelling dstv as it is to expensive and all benefit i get is catchup and sports.
