At Smarter.com, we aim to ensure we give you the most sound buying advice possible. With our 'Cumulative Product Rating' system, in order for a product to receive a rating score, it must have a minimum number of ratings to qualify.
This system is not intended to diminish the value of products with a low number of ratings and reviews, they're great, and hopefully very helpful, but if you want our advice, we want to make sure that the product you're thinking of buying has been rated and reviewed by enough shoppers like you to be a valuable indicator of product quality.

Easy to Install. A little slower than the internal drive.
Overall it Apricorn 500GB Esata Interface DVR Xpander is easy to install and works pretty well. The only problem I have noticed is when I am recording 2 programs and trying to watch a previously recorded program. The drive does not seem to be...

Tivo HD
This product does not work with Tivo HD DVR. This DVR Expander locked up my tivo. But it claims it will work any DVR equipped with an active eSATA port. But it does NOT. So if you are looking for one that works with the TIVO HD get the WD 500GB My...

Great with Comcast
Simple hookup and it works exactly as others have stated with comcast. If you swap your DVR or switch companies you will need to reset the drive but otherwise exactly what I wanted at what I think is a great price.

Best of three external drives I tried...
I tried, in order, 1) the Cavalry 500GB drive, 2) the WD My DVR Expander, and 3) the Apricorn 500GB DVR Xpander with my SA8300HD DVR from Time Warner.

Dead as a doornail
Poor quality control. The unit arrived with a dead power adapter. I sourced a working power adapter and then determined that the drive itself was defective and unable to power up.

Never had a problem in almost 4 months.
This is the greatest investment especially for those who like to record several HD movies and events such as UFC in HD. Only downside to the technology is the inability to distinguish what data lays on the DVR from data in the Xpander. Also my co...
