To fix the "Hard Drive is Off-Line" issue on the Freesat Recordable 4K TV Box, follow these steps:
1. Confirm Hard Drive Failure: If the box starts missing recordings or displays a "something is wrong" warning screen when powering up, these may indicate a failing hard drive.
2. Prepare Tools and Replacement: - Obtain a replacement hard drive. - Use a hex security bit and a Stanley knife.
3. Replace the Hard Drive: - Turn the set-top box upside down. - Use the hex security bit to remove the two screws (one of these may have a warranty seal, voiding any warranty). - Replace the failed hard drive with the new one.
4. Reassemble and Test: - Secure the screws back in place. - Power up the box to ensure the issue is resolved.
If the hard drive is replaced correctly, the box should function normally.
