I bought this item on spec, as it were, to upgrade my Humax 9200T PVR - not what the vendor sells them for, so at my own risk. As far as I can tell thus far it is doing the job well and I can recommend anyone who finds 160Gb insufficient to risk the money on one of these to upgrade to 500Gb. The supplier's service is excellent and the item perfect. The Humax section of Digital spy forum will provide advice on the adaptors needed.

segate are one of the best so you wont go wrong and with 500gb it has plenty of storage for your games,films,and music and buying from a 100% ebayer it was great value for money
