Those of you with Tailgaters
I have a VP211z receiver that I bought with the Tailgater. What brand or type of hard drive are you all using to record programs? Thanks

Mine is the 500gb version, and I have never even come close to filling it up. Of course, I also don't just keep recording stuff and never deleting it either. If you are one of those kind of people, it comes in a 1tb version as well.
I like it because:
- It is small
- It is USB powered, hence no power cube to plug in
- It has never failed me
- Last but not least, it was inexpensive
Will this work using an iPhone or iPad charging cube with the USB connection?
I am not sure what your are asking here . . .
Will it work on the home satellite/receiver to record programs/movies then taken to the RV for playback?
Like the previous poster mentioned, whatever hard drive you use will be formatted for use only with the 211 receiver. I am 99% sure it cannot then be plugged into any other device for playback purposes.
