"I bought this to extend the record time on a Comcast Scientific Atlanta Explorer 8300HD DVR from the pitiful 20 hours of HD capacity. Prior to purchase, I called Comcast and verified that it would indeed work with that specific DVR model and once verified, I went ahead with the purchase. The setup is quite simple. You connect the hard drive to the DVR via the included eSata cable. You then unplug the DVR, then p..." Read Full Review »

"This product is recommended by Scientific Atlanta for use with their 8300HD series. However, there are two types of SA 8300HD's.

Western Digital MyBook DVR Expander 500GB HD Review
"We added this to our Scientific Atlanta Explorer 8300 HD cable DVR. I wasn't sure if the SATA port was enabled by Charter cable in the Victor Valley but it was.
