[QUOTE="OldBen, post: 155394, member: 194242"] Hi John, I think the 70xx series are massivly overpriced for what they are to be honest, and not worth £300... I actually ideally want to record to a network share as I have a small low power PC I leave on 24x7 for web site email etc in the Garage, and better spinning noisy disks in the garage than the lounge! So the 500 is ideal for this. The Relook 400S is tempting, but support seems a little limited, so I am am settled on the 500S but no one seems to have any in stock, and the prices seem to go up weekly! I really want a cheaper box for now, see how it goes then when HD is more common I am sure there will be more boxes, and things like the TD and Relook are going to overtake the Dream IMHO as they have more memory (96MB TD vs 64MB Dreambox from memory) as the cams get more complex and memory hungry. Just wondered if anyone had managed to get a 500S recently, and if they have looked inside it for a disk connector ;) or had a reply from Dream on an enquiry, cause they seem to be ignoring me! Paul.
