<div dir="ltr">Thanks Stephen, I only asked because the first attempt to clone the drive with gparted failed, but after using e2fsck on it I was able to move the files to the acceptable drive, but still good to know as I endeavour to get all the possible milage out of these drives.

Create a new storage group with any name you like other than the<br>
standard names. I would suggest in this case using "BadDrives". Then<br>
put the partition on the bad drive in the new storage group. Unless<br>
you create a recording rule that tells mythbackend to record to the<br>
new storage group, it will only use it to show existing recordings.<br>
