works seamlesslyOctober 13, 2008 instantly adds a ton of Tivo recording space. well worth it. hook up was a no-brainer.
Used for Tivo expansionOctober 10, 2008 I purchased this to expand my Tivo storage. Connection was easy and I have had no problems so far.
On the negative side: This is the ONLY expansion drive approved by Tivo and for which they offer technical support. This is too bad because I would rather have had a 1TG, or larger, drive. This one is already almost full.
Tivo - get on the ball and verify / approve other larger drives for use with HD shows.
Died after 30 daysOctober 6, 2008 The external storage worked great and died after 30 days. With Tivo, you lose most recordings as it puts recordings on both. Have opend an RMA with WD and will see how a replacement works.
Easy to connect and useOctober 1, 2008 Had no problem connecting this to my TV and expanding my capacity to 85 Hours HD and over 800 hours SD. My new TiVo required a software upgrade but that was also easy.
WDG1S5000VN GreatOctober 1, 2008 Great product was a breeze to hook up and install. extends my TiVo nicely would have bought a 1Gb if it was offered.
