[red devil]

ive a few 3.5" hdd lying around is there a 3.5" to 2.5" adaptor i can get to use on the dm600pvr (ive seen them the other way round)or is there a way to rec to a ext usb hdd
id be interested to hear wat method of storing recorded stuff from u lot, and of course the pros & cons

a 3.5" drive takes power from a 4pin power cable, the 2.5" drives take the power via the ide cable and the ide interface that is specific to those 2.5 drives.. No USB on a dm600. you can only use an internal 2.5 HDD up to 500Gb or a network attached device.

I use a 250gig Western Digital Whisper Drive (don't know model number)... nice and quiet and was easy to set up... just connected it up and set the box to see it and then formatted it.

remember to buy IDE not sata
