I've purchased the drive kit for my S2 Dual Tuner, as well as a large hard drive. I was surprised in the how-to to find :
"TiVo 80hr TCD649080 Standalone Single 80GB A drive (dual tuner model - only accommodates a single drive)"
My bracket fits in the TiVo, and looks like I can fit two drives in there just fine. Is there a hardware reason that I can't? I have installed the bracket, fan, etc. and reassembled the TiVo while waiting for my new B Drive, and it all fits together just fine.
On a second note, I've become confused in the how-to about backing up my original drive. I'd much rather just format the B Drive accordingly and plug it in, using my existing A Drive. Is this a problem?
Thanks guys.
By the way, I'm also using the weeknees boot CD, but haven't used Unix in over 10 years. Can someone give me the few lines needed to format a big add-on B Drive appropriately?
