The hard drive seems to run all the time. The unit is in our bedroom and the noise is disturbing. Clack, clack, click.

Every now and then it will quit for a few days then start up again. Is it trying to defrag itself?

There is no recording going on.
No timers active.

We are not using the DVR feature as we have a 622 in the living room for that, so any solution that kills the DVR is not a problem.

Thanks
 
The hard drive spins whether you are using the dvr or not. You can either unplug it or move the receiver out of the room and wire the tv to work with it in another room.

I understand the spin part. But this sucker is seeking ;-)
