HDD specs for the 7025

[sprockett]

Keenley awaiting the arrival of my new baby (7025)
Can any one enlighten me on the requirements of a suitable Hard drive?
any limitation on RPM or interface speed?
I know the earlier DreamBox's had heat and PSU limitations.
I have found some 320GB / 7200rpm / UDMA100 drives from western digital for just over HK$1100. But will they work in th Dream Box?

Any Ideas

only two things requiered: max usage 500mv and 7200rpm - no other limitations - have tried three different hdd (7200rpm) ibm 45 gb seagate 120 gb and finally maxtor 250 gb - all with no probs.
Buy a big one - youre gonna use it in the future

"Support for internal HDD in any capacity"

This is what DMM write, so i think there´s no limit

It seems you are correct.

I am sure there used to be a 300GB limit ?

If i remember correct, it was on the DM7000 there was this limit. (maybe the blue display model)
