[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 656360, member: 176256"] There are at least two suppliers of HDRs with 1TB drives installed. Putting [I]humax hdr 1tb[/I] into the search box at Ebay currently brings up 3 hits. One of the suppliers is using a WD Caviar Green drive while the other other one does not say. From investigations elsewhere I believe the other supplier is using a Seagate Pipeline drive, the same (but bigger) as fitted as standard - at least it is in mine. The Pipeline series is optimised for AV use. Searching for [I]Pipeline [/I]at the computers, storage area of Ebay brings up several hits. Sometimes there are 1TB units for sale and here is where it gets a little difficult. At 1TB there is a choice between Pipeline and a Pipeline Pro versions. The Pipeline has EXACTLY the same power consumption and other details regardless of size but the Pro has a larger cache and consumes slightly more power. Whether this is important or not I really don't know but so far I've chickened out of this upgrade. Regardless I, personally, wouldn't step outside the Seagate world for my hard drive. [/QUOTE]
