UPDATE: july-02-07 so i have almost finished. i added another hard drive to my tivo. it was a 40hr tivo now its a 130hr tivo. i only added a 80 gig drive to it because all my other big drives where all sata and tivo uses ide. i will buy a sata to ide converter later but now i am good.

i used this http://www.newreleasesvideo.com/hins...to/index9.html

i am just wating for my usb to ethernet adapter to come in the mail.

so my total cost are as so

tivo off ebay
$45
i made my own bracket to add a second drive so that was free but u can buy them for $20 http://www.weaknees.com/twinbreeze.php
software was also free but it was alot more harder than if u buy the software that sets up drives on its own. its also $20 called instantcake http://www.dvrupgrade.com/dvr/stores/1/instantcake.cfm
hard drive was free also cuz i use a old one i had laying around but a 80gig drive is like $40 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822140118
and the tivo service is 16 bucks a month.
and usb to ethernet adapter was 30 bucks http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16833124122

so for me its was 90 bucks.

so yea u can also do this with almost all dvr`s.

so is there any way to NOT pay the monthly charge or the huge "lifetime subscription" charge?
