Which Box for a novice Openbox S9 or S10

[Reddog622]

Hi Guys Me Again
I have sorted the Satellite dish out but I?ve now moved on to what box to get.
Remember I?m a total novice at this so I?m looking for the most simple box that can pick up sly TV and is capable of recording and playing in HD quality.
I?ve been recommended the Openbox S9 should I go ahead and purchase or is there anything else I should know before I go ahead?

Many Regards
Red

Yes pvr works ok.

pvr works fine , although i have found openbox a bit temperamental in what type hdd it accepts ,
apparently seagate are reported as working , i would advise to get one with its own power supply too , as 5v from usb may not be enough for recording HD ,

Just to add I have 500gb seagate, records all fine.
