I boutht a 500GB HDD for my Starview PVR. IT would not work, I had great help from Larryoke who told me he thought it could be too big.Note Window will not let you format Fat32 above 32GB I messed about with some free software I got from the net "Fat32formatter" 1.0 by TOKIWA. Conecting this to my laptop it allowed me to re partition my HDD. It was very easy. Just remeber to intiate the partion. I tried several setting and the highest I got it to work on was 220GB before I gave up. Note - 280GB was to big. I turned the starview off. coneccted the HDD and switched it on. then switched on the SV4. After it had settled. pressed the record button. everything freezed. switched of the HDD. A logo for the USB came up on the screen saying USB unattached . I switched the HDD back on. waited 30 sec Pressed record. and the RECit initiated and it wroks. I hope this helps some one else who has a larger HDD and wants to use it :barscarf:
