What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Dvr seems to operate smoother now with multiple hd streams. Easy to swap out generic dive - plugged it into dvr, powered up and it was found instantly by the dvr and started to record straight away.

Brilliant drive, quite, nippy for its specs. Easy to swap.

Competitiveness
The seagate st1000vm002 was used to replace a failing original drive in a humax dtr t1000 youview box.
I purchased this to replace a failing drive in a humax hdr-fox t2.
The standard 500gb drive in my humax hdr-fox t2 slowly decayed over a period of months, and then died.
If anyone's interested, this is how to do it on a humax box:1.
