I'm actually doing that. It is an old TV set, used with a new digital tuner. The *new* digital tuner doesn't accept exFAT.
When I was responsible for US Government secrets, it was forbidden to write down any combinations to the safes. Now, when I create a new password for my online banking, the tell me to write it down.

I a have a TV recorder box that can write unlimited long movies. An old thing.

If they can do that, they can probably access the files directly, without bothering with my backups. In addition, there's much more interesting stuff at stake that the source code various programs I've written, letters of complaint to the government, etc. My internet banking password, for one.
