Title: Toshiba D-R550 Class Action Suit!
Product review: There was a class action suit for the very problems reported with the Toshiba D-R550.More Here:COLUMBUS, OHIO (CN) - Since 2004, Toshiba has sold D-R550 digital video recorders with defective memory systems that lose data and require constant reprogramming, and it concealed the defects and refuses to fix it, a class action claims in Federal Court.[...]I bought two of these units as refurbished online a year ago, did not have a reason to set one up until a week ago. Found the same tuner channel dropping problem as mentioned with one, not with the other. Also seems, that it overwrites a previously recorded program rather than continuing on to the next un-recorded area until the disk is full. Therefore you can't set it up to record Monday-Friday the same program at the same time and watch it all at the end of the week.Even and old VCR doesn't "rewind" the tape and record over it!
