But even if I accomplish this feat will the DVR be able to fetch the data from the external device or do I have to find some other method of playing it back?
No, the DVR will not be able to fetch the data once it is off it's hard drive. The only input on the DVR is the coaxial connection to the wall outlet. If you want pull the programs off the DVR you will have to send it to a VCR or a computer that has a capture card.
