Encrypted ift files

[WaveyDavey]

Is there anyway we can fit aftermarket hdd to IR2570 if its not listed as a genuine Canon part?
We are quite used to editing the ift files for the IR2200 etc models but as this file is now encrypted I don't know what to do.

I think you may mean an iR2270?
iRC2570 is basically an iRC3100 with minor changes and easily modified .ift files.
I DO know that the iR2270/3570/4570 range do have the encrypted .ift files and i've only ever had to replace a HDD once in the past four years and can't remember the work around.
I think,from memory,that we replaced the drive with an identical model bought elsewhere.
It MUST be 80gig too.
