in Beef Up Your DVR With an Extra Hard Drive on blog.jr.com
Felix, Like Jim says- it depends on your DVR. Mine will use an internal and external together. You need to talk to your provider first as some boxes do not have an eSATA port enabled. Some providers (like mine) will also charge a fee to have the external drive connected- not physically, but just to enable it to function.

in Finally, An Affordable Blu-Ray Player on blog.jr.com
Yeah, a good deal if you have HD Audio Decoding on your receiver. But c'mon, if you don't have a bluray player, more than likely you're not going to have a receiver capable of decoding.

When it comes down to it, you'll still be paying as much as or more than a PS3.

People who "don't want a gaming console" are out of touch. I'm not a gamer, but the PS3 so much more than for game: A media center (I stream music and pictures from my NAS or Windows Media Player), a Web Browser, with the eye toy, it can be used for video conferencing. Obviously it's a DVD and BR player. Eventually it'll be a DVR. And ya, it even plays games, too. It's also solidly built unlike anything I've seen Sylvania manufacture.

This is an instance where you'll get what you pay for.
