Recordings are typically 2GB per Hour. I believe that you can use any size 2 1/2" IDE drive. The EPG would depend on what channels you are watching and the image installed, you can get 7+ days on many packages with some images.

By "Split the Satellite feed" do you mean to run 2 receivers or watch the picture from the DM600 on 2 TV's. You would use a twin LNB to use 2 receivers, or use the scart + phono outputs (or a scart splitter) for 2 TV's
