Add Hours Of Storage Space To Your Cable DVR Box
If you have a HD DVR from the cable company, then you might have
figured out by now that recording HD programming takes up considerably
more storage space then standard definition programming.
Sometimes you find out the hard way after a program you recorded previously has suddenly vanished from your list.
If your cable company uses the Scientific Atlanta 8300HD Cable Box
there is a product available from Maxtor called the QVX Expander Plus
-Quickview, which can be connected to the cable box and provide you
with up to and additional 500GB of programming storage.
A 300GB Expander recorded with standard definition television can
store approximately 200 hours of content. A high-definition television
signal is roughly 8 to 10 times larger than standard definition.
Therefore, if you record the same 300GB drive with high-definition
content, you will get about 20-25 hours of recorded HD content.
This unit is actually a SATA hard drive that connects to the cable
box with the included eSATA cable and comes with an AC power adapter.
The connection is easy and it works with many companies/8300HD boxes,
but not all. It depends primarily on which software is running on your
cable box.
