Good Points: None - apart from price
General comments: ONN SW8411HDR Hard drive recorder review. Manual is incomprehensible and the type so small on the setup plan that its illegible. Even after 3 phone calls lasting a total of 1.5 hours its still not working properly. Can't get it to stay on Scart connection or work with my excellent Sony TV.

Bought this from ASDA, after a really bad experience with another purchase (See Sony RDR GX120 review). Onn... the face of it, a good buy - HDD and DVD for under £120. But after plugging it in and waiting for the noise to stop, decided the noise must be from the Hard Drive, which, I assumed, would be constantly rotating, in order to provide the Time shift facility. Looked through all the menus - no option to stop the Hard Drive. Listened a little more closely and realised it was the coolin ...
