I just hate that their isn't a bigger HDD in it.
I can record like 70+ Hrs of SD but only about 12 Hrs of HD It would be nice to be able to add an External HDD for more space too. |

Dish is 40 hours HD, approx 400 SD, and they allow encrypted external HD attachment by USB [ie, the files won't mean anything anywhere except attached to the satellite receiver]. Interestingly, you can plug the satellite HD directly in to your computer and extract unencrypted files. They don't encrypt the internal HD.

Do you know what size HDD is in the box internally? I don't ever see myself switching from cable, but I'd like to know a few things about Dish, if you can answer. About how much would it cost for 4 HD Recievers w/ the DVR included? If that doesn't make sense, I'll lay it out. We have 4 HDTVs, 1 for the living room, 3 for the bedrooms. I want a HD DVR for each. If it is a lot cheaper than cable then I may switch, considering you get so much more recording time. |
