Formatting The Hard Disk - Topfield TF 520 PVRt User Manual

7.8 Formatting the hard disk

At the top of the panel, you will see a message that says Turbo
Off. Turbo mode is a way of speeding up the transfer of files to
and from the digital receiver. You can click the circle to the left
of the message to turn turbo mode on or off.
Turbo mode makes transferring files faster, but the digital re-
ceiver stops responding to commands from the remote control.
If you want to use the digital receiver while transferring, or if
any scheduled recordings are due to start, you should not use
turbo mode.
NOTE
You cannot play back the recordings with a regular MPEG
player on your computer because they are formatted dif-
ferently from the standard MPEG format. Visit

If a new hard drive is installed, it must be formatted because
you can neither record nor use time-shift with an unformatted
hard disk.
You can delete permanently all contents stored in the hard
drive by formatting it. If you wish to do that, select the In-
stallation > Format Hard Disk menu, then you get asked for
confirmation. If you select Yes, formatting will start.
