Advice needed on openbox s10

[khan07958]

Hello all looking at purchasing a Open box s10 or dreambox 500s.
Although at present looks like the openbox s10 due to its recording features.
Which is the more reliable box?
Can someone advice how reliable these units are for picture quality ie is there alot of glitching?
Also would appreciate if someone could recommend a working hard drive for these units like 160 or 200gb.
The satellite side is totally new to me, however plan to learn and help as much asI can.
Many thanks in advance for all your replies

Both reliable boxes mate imo , altho the dm500 has stood the test of time , no HD on that tho ,
pic quality on the openbox is awesome , probably out performs my dm800 in both HD + SD .
Seagate hard drives seem to be compatable with s10 from what i have read,
Openbox is Glitch free provided your on a good share , all these commercial cs sites are mostly overcrowded nowadays and glitch like crazy
good luck mate

btw , awefull avatar pic mate , swap it for an everton badge , you may get a bit more respect on these boards then

Thanks for that mate, the open box s10 seems to be very promising.
How are they for flashing?
Straightforward?
More familiar with the cable side of things, satellite is new to me so hoping to learn and help when can.
Will look at the Seagate hardrives.
I hope the lack of replies was not due to my Avatar pic .
Not liking the avatar pic you got to be a blue nose or a Manc

I would say that the openbox is the easiest box of all to set up and sure if you get stuck just come back on and ask for help, and BTW your avatar has to be one of the best I have ever seen
