That's too cool for words! However I am a light user with only about a
dozen 1-hour shows per week that I erase after viewing.
I assume it's PATA.
I have read that other units can accept up to 500GB, not bigger.

Where exactly is it? I have not explored all the features.
Or do you just plug in an unallocated disk or maybe a partitioned disk
and the Polaroid automatically formats it?
I have read that other HDD DVDRs can accept FAT32 disks.
>I beleive you have to use Western Digital drives though.
That's the only kind I use.
I just retired a 15GB Caviar I have used continuously (first as a boot
disl and then later as an operational backup disk) since 1999. It
finally started Clicking.
