    This receiver can have a hard drive inserted via the front flip down panel. There is no need to open the box to access the inside just slide it in the front.

    They use 2.5" (Laptop) type HDD.

    Recomended manufacturers HDDs WD, Seagate & Samsung 80 / 120 GB 2.5" IDE drive giving you 40/60 hours worth of recording.

    I received my hard drive for the Eurovox 5000 PVR. I am not at all technical. Could you please advise me how to install this. I did insert it in the front but nothing happened and when I pressed PVR on the remote control it said hard drive is full or not installed. Please help.

    You need to carry out a recording or pause live TV for it to work. This is a very common problem.
