I-O Data's Rec-POT HVR-HD800R: add 800GB to your Blu-ray recorder

by Thomas Ricker, posted Nov 22nd 2006 at 8:41AM

If you bought into a first gen Blu-ray Disc / HDD recorder you're probably feeling a bit shortchanged on the disk space what with that 1TB HD DVD/HDD recorder available from Toshiba. Don't sweat it, I-O Data's got your back with their D-VHS capable, 800GB Rec-POT HVR-HD800R which can augment the storage of either the Panny DMR-BW200 or Sharp BD-HD100 when connected over one of the 2x Firewire in/outs. No BD recorder? No problem, this Rec-POT is more than capable of taking care of the recording biz all on its own when snuggled up to the TV over HDMI. It even plays nice with your Firewire digital video camera as you'd expect. Hitting Japan in December for ¥89,000 (about $754) for the 800GB model, a bit less if you're only looking for another 250GB.

Is there anyway that the admins can block this spammer from posting his URL on every article posted? This is at least the third in a row. :(

I want a Blue Ray Recorder to save DVR movies I have filling up my DirecTV HD-250. Is that possible. Can I copy movies, programs,etc. to the individual Blue Ray disks to save space on my HD DVR??

Thanks
