john@total Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Have just had an DM eco4 go down with a drive fault. i know everyone says that it has to be sent back to DM but i heard a whisper that if you dont format the new sata drive on a PC and just plug it stright in to the eco4 it formats itself and works. does anbody know this for sure? It is now just a spare so having a play is ok. john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selsport69 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Are the DM hard drives still giving problems. When I was at IES 5 years ago I stopped using them because of the high failure rate I had with the DM hard drives. Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
