    You'll have to give us some more details.

    Which image are you using?
    What do you mean by 'wont go to hdd'?
    What does the mountmanager say?
    Is the problem only in Timeshift or also with recordings?
    What path have you setup in Recordings Settings?
    What path have you set in Timeshift Settings?

    Help asked via PM will be ignored.
    The forum is there for help and all will benefit from your questions.
    NO CARD SHARING TALK WILL BE TOLERATED, LAN OR WAN, IN OPEN FORUM OR PM !

    I apologise for all my grammar, spelling and idiom errors.

    Are you sure about that ? as there is code in place to specifically prevent recordings being made to the internal flash.

    also you say it has been this for a week ?
