My System: DM 500s. 95cm dish 0.1 best LNB Dark motor 1.3 | I have just bought the 800, i got an original from gold wafers. £399. I have a question or 2 for any other dreambox 800 owners. I decided not to get a hard drive as those little hdds have always been a pain in the bum for me they dont last very long! I plan on using a 1 terrabyte external hard drive.

I can answer No3 & 4. for you mate. Nabilosat Blackhole is by far the best image. It includes a built in EPG feature for many of the popular providers including Sly UK as well as a lot of other cool features and some really impressive skins. Not sure about the other questions mate, hopefully others can help. I'd be very surprised if it can't read the card. | ||
