hard drive upgrade

[aboz]

I am gonna get my D* installed saturday. I am gonna get one dtivo. I bought a 120gb hard drive. I only want to swap the 40gb for the 120gb. I read the instructions on the web, but I need it simplified.


Thanks,

Alex

The best place for information on how to upgrade your tivo can be found at the tivo community forum. Look in the Tivo Underground section. They have very detailed step by step instructions. If you don't feel you are up to it you can have it done professionally. It is not that difficult if you have ever upgraded a drive in a computer.

If you don't feel comfortable then find a PC hardware-savy geek and point him to the instructions and he should be able to handle it just fine.

Check out this site for exact steps. The resulting tailored instructions also point you to a page that has instructions with color pictures of an upgrade.

I bought an upgrade kit from weaknees.com and it only took about 20 minutes to install. Pretty sweet deal and I now have about 105 hours of recording time on my HDVR2.
