I just bought one of these from a secondhand electrics shop for £1.00! I also bought it for the hard drive and thanks to your video I now know how to get into the bloody thing!

Also it shows 3D on demand at the front and no mention of Amstrad. Still model DRX 890 - C so probably with a HD 500 GB inside.

Fkin ell, can imagine the design brief Sky gave the manufacturer on these "make them total bastards to get the guts out of".

[@darennaisbitt1314]

what a nightmare to strip down, I was led to believe it would be a 2tb but hey a 500 is better than nothing

How there is no visible RAM inside? Direct bus to HD? Must be very slow. Also what kind if chip is it? An old 386 😂 Very nice video by the way 😊 Just found one in the street tonight actually, I never subscribed to Sky anyway 😂 Incredible what people throw away in London 🤦‍♂️
