Vu+ Duo Hard disk keeps loosing format

Tolner

Vu+ Newbie
I have Vu+ Duo with original image (Black Hole Enigma 2010-12-21)
I installed a used windows 250 Gb Hard disk.
First I could not get it to initialize but then managed to format it with computer for Linux.
Then Vu+ Duo found disk and I could initializing and check file system.
When I go to Hard Disk, I see Detected HDD: ATA(ST3250820AS).
I'm able to record, so all seems okay.

If I however switch Vu+ Duo completely off (remove plug from socket) and then switch back on later, it seems that Hard Disk has lost initialization because when I press record, I get error message that HDD is not initialized. I still find Hard Disk in menu and can re-initialize it. Then it works again.
So basically every time I switch on I need to initialize Hard Disk again.

Does anyone has same problem or solution ???

It's very strange.

Can you test your box with another HDD? HDDs don't loose their filesystem when the device who host them is unplugged from CA normally...
