Problem with Sata 2.5 hard drive recordings

My laptop gave up so i had the 2.5 sata hard drive taken out and am trying to use this recording programs from the HD6000 receiver. When i plug the hard drive into the computer there are 2 drives located on my PC one is local drive "F" ad the other "G" is OS install formatted to NTFS
When i record from the hard drive it only records on the local "F" drive 258MB so recording time is too short and recordings stop early
The "G" OS install drive shows nothing but has a 286GB capacity, how can i put my spiderbox recordings on to the "G" OS install drive with the bigger capacity?
many thanks

Can you put the drive back into a pc (will have to be a secondary drive ), then go into computer management delete one of the partitions then format the drive , that should give you full space back once you refit to spiderbox.

thanks Cosworth & JMS
i thought for recording on HD from spiderboxHD600 it has to be formatted to NTFS
Found way round this, just copy and paste any recordings to sata drive from another different hard drive
