How the eSATA Drive Works with Your DVR
An eSATA drive is an extension of the internal hard drive of the DVR; it is not an archival device. Programs recorded
to the eSATA drive can be played back on the DVR originally connected to the eSATA drive. For instance, you cannot
record programs to the eSATA drive, remove the drive, and then connect it to a computer or a different DVR for
playing back programs.
Some programs will record to the DVR internal hard drive and some will record to the eSATA drive, depending on the
space available. The DVR selects the drive that has enough space to record the entire program; a program is not split
between the internal and external drives.
