There's a 500GB, power saving, quiet running Hard drive for $70 at Newegg.com. It requires a little bit of semi-advanced computer gymnastics to get it recognized by the TiVo, but it's a much better option unless you REALLY want surround sound from your TiVo.

Here is the site that convinced me that I did not want to do my own eSATA DVR expansion. You would probably be better capable to do a lot of this than I. But for me, a part of it was the TiVo support issue.
