We have one and believe it's a Western Digital, but can't remember the size. It works well, but you can't record without the satellite up. I guess that's obvious and one that I often forget. Also, you have to turn it on at the same time as your receiver or you have to reboot the receiver in order to get it to recognize the hard drive. You also have to notify Dish that you have that option on the Dish.
I called Dish because I have a problem with a receiver in my house and if I replace it I loose all my movies and shows I have recorded. So then I thought about buying a hard drive to store them and can use it in the RV. does it work as well as the DVR receivers?
