Ties neatly to the first, the cafe scene at the end brings tears every time I see it.

Expand your DVR storage so you can record more of your favorite TV shows. Or, transfer and store videos from your compatible camcorder to free up space for more recording. Connect the drive to a game console, Blu-ray Disc player or media player, like one from the WD TV family, to smoothly stream video to your big screen TV. It's the perfect solution for your video storage and playback needs.

Simple, Affordable - Must have TiVo expansion
on July 29, 2012
Posted by: PCurry
from Dallas, TX
This is the easiest upgrade of any system I've ever done. Repower on first time with it powered up and connected my TiVo Premiere recognized it immediately and knew just what to do. Went from 45 Hours of HD capacity to 193 HD Hours and didn't have to preform surgery replacing drive which would void any Warranty. Took a little over 20 minutes to finish it's expansion, one more self reboot and it was done. Totally silent operation the tiny power light on front is unobtrusive and barely noticeable.
Even the tech challenged can do this in a heartbeat, it really is that simple just follow these simple instructions. http://support.tivo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/280/kw/expand%20storage.
What's great about it: Everything you need included (eSata Cable incl.)
What's not so great: What ????

I pre-ordered this, picked it up when store opened. I'd heard from a friend how cute this was. This is especially good 3D movie, simply amazing... One of the best 3D flicks out.
Btw this is 3 disc. (3D bluray, 2D bluray and DVD.)
What's great about it: Incredible 3D movie
What's not so great: Whats not to love

Awesome 3D Movie
on February 15, 2012
Posted by: PCurry
from Dallas, TX
Yes, it has both 3D and 2D (on same disc), Not a flipsy! Cannot play 2D version in non-3D player though, so why bother putting the 2D version on the disc. The 2D version is accessed via menu; a 3D menu! I'm thinking someone didn't quite think this through all the way.
What's great about it: This is a great 3D flick awesome effects
What's not so great: Why bother putting 2D version on disc, won't play on non-3D player.

useless piece of junk.
on February 1, 2012
Posted by: PCurry
I live on the forth floor in N.Dallas (not far north) just north of loop 12 south of I635. This only brought in a couple of channels. We have like 30 or so broadcast digital station. This only got a few. No where near 25 miles to the Cedar Hill broadcast Hill. Dallas is mosty flat. This is garbage.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It works, but with problems
By Phil59 from Orange County, CA
It works on Time Warner SA 8300HDC, but it causes the DVR functions to become extremely sluggish. Opening the Guide, scrolling from one show to another or one page to another, etc. became very slow and tedious. It might take 4 or 5 seconds just to see the next selection of the remote reflected on the DVR. Too frustrating for me so it's going back.

Sounds like an issue with the Time Warner SA 8300HDC not this expansion.
I've had this on one of my TiVo's since July 2012. I'm with TWC also get you a TiVo Premiere and if you need access to other rooms get a Premiere 4/XL4 and the new Mini's; only one cable card/tuning adapter required. I intend on adding another of these to my other TiVo Premiere. I don't know what you pay TWC for their DVR with my TiVo's I pay only $2.50 each for my two cable cards. I don't care for TWC onDemand content when I can get NetFlix and Hulu Plus on my TiVo's

Best Purchase To Date
By sobe1knobe from Morganville, NJ
My wife and all my friends think I'm a joke because I buy all these gadgets and return them after two weeks or less. That's because I am a smart buyer and I want to make sure it's worth every penny. I bought the Sony Tablet lately (water proof)- returned too slow and big, Apple Mini (gave it my wife) what a gimmik. Apple 2nd Gen gave it to 4 year old daughter. Sony Ultrabook 11" gave it my wife. Samsung S4- returned. You get the point.
There is just something about this purchase that my gutt tells me that she is all mine! I love this tablet - been wanting a 7 inch tablets been waiting for this- held off from buying other 7" tab including the 1st gen Nexus and I am glad I did. Powerful, vivid display, barebone Android is wow- awesome (referring back to AT&T Samsung S4) probably why i returned it cause it's got so much carrier junk in it (AND NO- I REFUSE TO ROOT IT) for all you root junkies out there! Sound is exceptional. Just a great buy- real keeper!

WiFi a/b/g/n?
July 30, 2013
Is the 5Ghz really just a/n or is it AC?
I kept my GS4 in part because it was AC and works great with my RT-AC66R. I long ago migrated my home network to 5Ghz N working on bringing it up to AC

Connect to the Web with this Samsung BD-H6500/ZA Blu-ray player. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.

Nice and compact
By Pamela from Dallas, TX
Remote buttons are tiny, though they do light up can still be difficult to see. Can't remove preloaded apps I don't want our use. Menu is crowded attempting to put everything on the screen at once. Wish it had a second USB on the back.

Is this a 'Supported device' for TiVo Roamio

I have a My Book AV DVR Expander (WDBABT0010HBK) eSATA that has been used exclusively with a TiVo Premiere DVR (TCD746320). The Premiere’s HDD has died and I have purchased a new TiVo Roamio (TCD846500). The Roamio does not ‘see’ my DVR Expander and TiVo Support says that it might be an ‘Unsupported device’. TiVo Support asked me for the ‘Drive ID’ which I don’t have and am hoping you can help.

Also, TiVo is selling a Western Digital My Book AV DVR Expander (1TB) on their website but they do not give the model or part number. Can you please tell me the full model number, eg WDBABT0010HBK-NESN. Can you provide a photo of the external box with the TiVo logo?
Yes this works with all TiVo's with eSata drive expansion connectors. Before you do this though first replace the internal drive with a 3TB WD AV-GP drive (you will lose all recordings currently on your Roamio). If losing those recordings isn't acceptable then yes just add this and you won't lose anything.

How can you check the wireless settings for my Motorola surfboard SB6121?

A Motorola SB6121 isn't a wireless device, it has no wireless setting to check

Print lab-quality photos and laser-quality documents, using HP Vivera inks. Photos dry instantly and resist smudges when using HP advanced photo paper.
 

HP photosmart plus B209

I just purchased a refurbished printer that i am really thrilled with does everything i want .
Ok now what 564 ink cartridges can i use on this older model.
I take it i am not able to use the photo black on this model.

I was going to buy the ink packs that BJ's sells but it also had the black photo pack and i did not think i could use it so why pay for the whole package.
thanks
diana
If your refurbished printer uses 564 cartridges then you just match the cart black to black, photo to photo, yellow to yellow, blue to blue...
