Best AV purchase... ever!

I still need to sort out some larger drives but I'm too chicken to do it!!!

Andy, once I have done mine I'll do yours for you if you want...

The 13 wk old screaming thing is sort of getting in the way of stuff like this at the moment though. I even have the discs already .. still in the box they were delivered in..

This site seems to have it in an step-by-step idiots guide form, so I may give it a go!!

I'm just looking for an idiots guide to adding in two hard disks (because I'm greedy!) and maybe an Ethernet connection to utilise the broadband connection!

The guide for 2 disc upgrades is http://www.newreleasesvideo.com/hinsdale-how-to/

Note there is a warning about booting Win2k/XP machines with the tivo drive attached right at the bottom....
