Just to be clear, I only bought this to use as an extended storage device for my DirecTV programs. Since both this unit and my DirecTV genie have EASA input I can store my programs on this unit which allows me to maintain a large database of recorded programs. The downside is that if my DirecTV Genie or this hard drive fails, my programs will be lost. DirecTV designed their devices so that every ghost owns the hard drive attached to it. So far I haven't had any problems.
