    Default Dreambox can't do what ?


    since reading this - it got me wondering
    where is a list of what various models can't do

    I have read:-
    - 600 internal slot cannot do iredeto
    - 600 does not do serial port
    - 7025 does not do serial port
    - 7020 does not do cf and hdd well together

    Youwon't find these in the specs on Dmm site
    can anyone debunk these as myths or verify them

    say what cards does the 600 support - NDS ? iredeto ? only euro ones ?
    is the CF and HDD issue solved by making the hdd a slave ?
    is serial port issue just software, firmware or hardware issue ?

    Happy for verified "you can not do's"
    or verfied "you can do that"

    All the above function.
    - Irdeto Zetas work well in the 600, and posted this a few weeks ago on here (screen dumps and all for provider 644)
    - It does serial fine and even has a 2400 baud on board modem
    - it works here for the tests I have tried - 2gb cf card 320gb hdd as normal

    What would you do if your server was stolen or failed beyond repair?

    Set the HDD to slave and it works perfectly.
    I use 2Gb CF and 160Gb HDD.

    No never needed to, what I use it for is serial debugging, and the question was does serial work, so the answer is yes.

    I don't know about debugging, but I know it won't do a card reader on a DM600.

    I've read elsewhere neither will a DM500+ or a DM800 or a DM7025 or a DM7025+, and if DM continues that trend, neither will a DM8000 if it ever gets out of the vapourware factory

    No idea I will play with it over the weekend and let you know on the card reader front.
