I checked the TiVo HD, and it was only recording a suggestion (that I wasn't interested in). So I canceled it.
I then setup the external drive. Found a spot on the UPS to plug in the odd shaped wart that prevented me to plugging it into my power strip.
And found a spot where the tall drive would fit on my stand (couldn't find any answer on whether it would work in a horizontal orientation)....silly drive...its not a book. The 500GB My Book cheaper (and the local computer store had some).
I then pulled the plug on the TiVo HD. Hooked up the eSATA cable. And, powered up the TiVo again.
It came up...but didn't seem to see the storage. After surfing the menus a bit, I remembered that there was a selection in the settings menu for external devices. So, I went there and set up the drive. It rebooted again and did the setup....
Now I can have up to 86 hours of HD.
This time coming out, I got a message saying that it finally detected storage and asked if I wanted to set it up (again). I deleted the message, and headed into work. ![]()
