And why purchase an upgraded TiVo DVR from DVRupgrade?
When you are dealing with DVRupgrade you are dealing with the experts on all-things-TiVo. We invented the TiVo upgrade kit almost eight years ago, and offered the first services and upgraded TiVo DVR units available anywhere. When you are purchasing from DVRupgrade, you are purchasing expertise, quality, and credentials comparable to none. We highly recommend upgraded TiVo units because running a unit with a single hard drive is inherently more-reliable then adding a drive at a later date. Your entertainment center will be cooler, less cluttered and aesthetically more pleasing, and having a TiVo as large as 1TB, is a great configuration to have.
Please see our TiVo HD and TiVo Series3 configurations for more details.
