the next version up would be the dm600 :)

you can buy this with a hdd installed or without if you prefere to install your own

which is pretty simply to do it come with instructions how to install :)

a dm500 image canot be used but there are enough images about for the dm600

which are more or less the same :)

DM600 -- ~200GBP without a hard drive
DM7025+ -- ~400GBP without a hard drive

These are "official" reseller prices.

DM500C images don't work with DM600, DM7025+ boxes and yes there are images available.

Hi Mate,

There are ones with 60GB HDDs on fleabay at the moment. They are going for about ?210. He may do you a deal if you contact directly though.

And NO it's not me :elefant:

Got my DM600pvr from Satstore ?195 all in no hard drive though, i'm waiting for a 160gb to come. Another thing he was very helpful when I got in trouble setting it up.

The 600, will allow you to stream to your PC, so you wont need a hard drive to begin with, though for ease of use, I would suggest you get one.
Make sure you get an IDE drive and not a SATA.

I shoved a 250Gb Western Digital drive into my 600C, works fine, prices vary...
