Ahh that makes sense, Ive been looking at this for nearly an hour wondering how the ~~~~ does it fit, Even asked the wife if I was missing something simple haha

ok here we go. here is a picture of the Uno HDD cradle which is suitable for use with both a 2.5" and a 3.5" HDD.

with the 2.5" drive the hdd sits over the inner holes and with the rubber grommets in place it is very solidly held in place.

LMAO i did the same thing when i got my Duo as i got it early december around 9 or 10 months after the Uno. it took me a few minutes to twig on that the cradle was for a 3.5" driver only as opposed to the one in the Uno.

What hdd do you need to be able to us in the vu+ duo

Thanks

[SGTFlipFlop]

I used a 2.5" laptop drive but read you can read just normal drives aswell

[sledge121]

is it possible to fit a sly+ hd hard drive into a duo and if so do i have to format it with pc before doing so?

[dell_xps]

Yes and it should format when installed ok :-)
HTH

[cathaltoner]

will the hard dive from a sky hd box be ok?

[dell_xps]

It should be ok m8 :-)

[diablo371]

will standard hard drive screws work to attach it to the vu+ duo bracket? Becuase the ones you would attach on the horrizontal side of a hdd for a pc case look to small.

[dell_xps]

You get screws with it m8.
