Record capacity of HR21/100?

[jborchel]

The D* guy just left after replacing my HR20/100 with an HR21/100. What is the storage capacity of this recorder? I had made a deal with the D* voice to replace with at least 500GB of storage on the new(old) receiver. My other receiver is a HR22/100 and he had told me that was 500GB. Somehow I suspect that a year older receiver doesn't have the same capacity.

The new(old) receiver install included WHV or whatever it's called. I now have one pooled recording list. It's really cool.

HR21 has a 320GB drive last I checked

Didn't they start changing out the 320 for a 500 in refurbished DVRs?
Or am I dreaming that?

I'm not 100% sure but I think you're dreaming

Is there a way to see what your capacity is on your receiver?

 

[Mr Tony]

other than recording a HD program and seeing what you have left % wise I dont know.....maybe on the back of the receiver?

From the Directv site they say 100HR HD and below that it says HD DVR Model HR22 or later required for maximum recording capacity.
And the HR22 has a 500GB drive so we go back to the assumption that the HR21 has a 320GB drive
