You have a 500GB drive, with 250GB available for your personal recordings.

Live pause, EPG listings, Showcase and a few other things will occupy the remaining space of the drive.

right ok thanks so how can you tell from the information i gave you

[Scubbie]

A variety of sources, including knowledge which I have learnt from other members on this forum.

Also please feel free to take a look at the table in this thread: http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/sky-h...-versions.html

I hope this helps.

I think this is a good indication
"it says 250gb personal space"

[thomasjc1]

Haha well this is why I asked cause it got me thinking 250gb personal space. Anyway thanks for your help anything is better then 80gb which I did have

anything is better then 80gb which I did have

With the amount of HD now available you will soon find 250Gb is not enough.
