WeaKnees takes TiVo HD units to 2TB

Earlier this year, we saw that WeaKnees was offering up TiVo HD boxes with enough storage to hold a staggering 144 hours of HD content, and now the company is aiming to make a few holiday wishes come true by more than doubling that previous number. You heard right, TV packrats can now order up a TiVo HD Series 3 DVR from WeaKnees that can hold 292 hours of HD programming (or 2,800 hours of SD content). The DVR itself will house a 1TB SATA hard drive and come bundled with a 1TB external drive, and will cost you a whopping $1,599 (after $200 rebate, no less) to claim one as your own.

WeaKnees now offering upgraded TiVo HD units


While cramming a larger hard drive into a vanilla Series 3 unit is all fine and dandy, WeaKnees is getting with the program and offering up upgraded TiVo HD boxes to those who just can't ever find enough space. Reportedly, the firm will be selling modified TiVo HD boxes "with up to 144 hours of HD capacity," and these beefed up iterations promise to record programming from traditional broadcast antennas, digital and analog cable, as well as the HD over-the-air broadcasts exactly like the factory-equipped counterparts. More specifically, interested customers have the option of getting 32, 43, 70, 107,or 144 hours of HD capacity depending on their budget, so be sure and hit the read link if you're ready to take the plunge.

WeaKnees now offering upgraded HR20s

HR20
Love it or hate it, the HR20 is here to stay, and one thing its got going for it is a 300GB hard drive, which is bigger than just about any DVR sold today -- including the Series3. But, just like many other DVRs out there, it is possible to upgrade the drive to expand its capacity and WeaKnees is there for the faint of heart. WeaKnees is well known for their TiVo upgrades, but now they are adding the HR20 to list. So for $999, you can now get an HR20 with 1TB of storage, which should go a long way in the world of MPEG4 or HD-Lite.
