I'm not sure how much hard drive noise bothers you, but the main reason why I added the external drive was because the Seagate drive the comes with the HR20 was so freaking loud. It annoyed the heck out of me. I could hear it all the time, even when the unit was off. So I bought a drive that was the quietest I could find, which I think was a WD, and now it's so much better.

Problems with Seagate Drive
I just tried hooking my new Seagate 700gb drive to the HR20 via the eSATA cable and restarted the HR20 but so far I am still only seeing the internal drive when it starts up. I even tried my second HR20 in a different location with the seagate
 but am having the same results. Any suggestions would be helpful..... |

External Hard Drive
It is the Seagate Free Agent Pro 750GB. Bought about three months ago for $189 at Costco. EXCELLENT! Just do it!
