I have one of these from Comcast, and I was wondering if anyone else has tried to hook up an external hard drive to expand storage (the internal storage is a pitiful 150GB, and is only worth about 20ish hours of HD recording). It has lots of different ports (eSATA, USB, and 2 Firewire), but I would assume that only the eSATA would be adequate for real-time recording to an external drive.
I was just curious if anyone else had tried to add an external drive, what they used, and how it was working out for them. I figured that no-one on [H] would be satisfied with a vanilla cable-company-provided DVR (and would mod the crap out of theirs, if they didn't use an HTPC).
