USB hard drive

You can connect a USB hard drive to your television and browse the contents of
supported formats. If you wish to use a USB hard drive as a hard disk recorder or to
download apps, you must connect and set up a USB HDD (Hard Disk Drive) or SSD (Solid
State Drive). Setting up a USB hard drive to be used as a hard disk recorder, enables you
to pause, replay and record digital programmes, make scheduled recordings and watch
recordings. For more information about hard disk recorder functions, press the red
button in the on-screen help and find 'Pause and play back a programme', 'Record a
programme' and 'Play a recording'.
Only a USB HDD or SSD supporting USB 2.0 or higher and of at least 250 GB can be used
for recording. The minimum storage capacity required of a USB hard drive is 32 GB if you
need it to install apps and 4 GB if you only need to pause programmes. However, for
recordings, it is recommended to use a USB HDD or SSD of at least 500 GB.
Important! Do not connect the USB hard drive you use for your PC or other devices, as
you are asked to format the hard drive and the contents will then be lost.

When connecting a USB HDD or SSD, you are asked to set it up. You can also bring up
the USB hard drive menu and follow on-screen instructions to format the hard disk.
It is recommended that it is kept connected to avoid data corruption. This implies that
recordings made on a USB HDD or SSD are locked to the television and cannot be
removed or used by another television. Only one USB HDD or SSD can be used for
recording at any time.
Connecting your USB HDD or SSD to your television via a USB hub, may cause hard disk
recorder operations to fail.
Important! If the television for some reason needs to be reinstalled, the connection of a
USB HDD or SSD is not remembered and the contents will no longer be accessible.
Recording on a USB HDD or SSD may not be supported by all programme providers.
You can connect a second USB HDD or SSD to the television, but as long as the already
connected hard disk is set up for recording, the second hard disk cannot be used as a
hard disk recorder.
If you connect a USB HDD or SSD to your television as the only hard disk connected, but
another USB HDD or SSD has previously been set up for recording, you can set up the
new USB HDD or SSD. However, the television will forget the previous hard disk setting
and the contents on the old USB HDD or SSD becomes unaccessible, as setting it up for
recording later will format the disk. You are asked to accept this, before you can proceed.
If setting up the new USB HDD or SSD is cancelled or fails, the setup of the previous USB
HDD or SSD is, however, restored.
