can you install a larger HD

Possibly, but there is an easier solution. The TiVo has an eSATA port which allows you to attach an external drive. I have a 1 TB Western Digital My Book AV DVR Expander (under $100 from Amazon) attached to mine. The TiVo automatically recognizes the external drive and transparently manages it as an extension of the internal drive. Easy, simple and effective.

If you are computer savvy it is not hard to do, I bought a 3TB internal for cheap and installed it and I have over 100 high def shows recorded and I am only using like 31% I love it.

Also remember that with the new Tivo OnePass the box will highlight streaming alternatives to recording the show which often means (for me at least) that I use less HDD space.

You should check the size difference between the two if the HD is thicker of wider then it will not work

You could possibly use this 3.5 inch drive if you purchase the new nyko databank which allows you to use 3.5 inch HDDs but dont use anything higher than 4TB.

yes it will, but afterwards you will have to extend the partition if you want to use the full drive.

You should have no problem with this HD. You may wish to partition it though.

Yes, You absolutely can... I recommend buying a 250 gb hard drive. They cheap and it will help you a lot...

Yes. I have had a computer had a 500GB plus a 1.5TB. And another with 2 SSDs which are relatively small volume and a 2TB HD. As long as you have the power and connectors you are free to add in as many of any size as you want.

Well I didn't try that but am sure its not support any hdd Thicer than 9.5 mm so not possible even to try any hdd more than 1 tb as it should be more Thicke than 9.5 mm

Yes. Just make sure your HDD doesn't get in the way by moving it to a lower 3.5" bay.

Yes you can. I have couple of 1tb from Seagate, couple of 2 tb from both Seagate and western digital and a 5 tb from segate. All worked fine with existing data no issues except the 5tb as I had to change the file allocation type to be recognized.

None. It is only a shell with 4 bays to instal whatever HDD you want. We recommend you use the same HDD manufacturer, model and size. We typically instal four (4) HDD's of 4TB each, for a total of 16TB HDD capacity. Go to www.qnap.com, click on the model and then choose Compatibility and they will list all compatible HDD's you can instal to make up the system.

Hi RacerX, maximum supported HDD capacity that can be installed is 2TB. Thanks, PCrush

Yes you can. You must re-format the card to FAT32 (use Easeus partition program--free). Create an unallocated partion of 300 MB, format to FAT32, and your card will have 59.xxGB to use.Good luck!David

Yes, you can. Also included are two bay areas, so you can install both the SSD and the HDD that came with it.
