Re: How to upgrade to Motorola 7xxx series for free

My brother has a 6416, do you think they will send him a 7232? Hope so.

If anybody has gotten a free 7232 through this trick please let the board know.

Sometime ago there was talk that the 7216 STBs were being retro-fitted with 500GB hard drives so they will have the same internal storage capacity as the 7232 STBs.

I think that the 7216 supports MPEG-4, so it is possible that they can be reused.

Exactly what model number has anybody gotten????

The 7216-P2 has a 500GB drive in it.

Only if it's been retrofitted. Original 7216-P2s in the field still have 160GB drives.
