[TV] DCT6416 III firmware

My parents are still using these and the storage space is awful. I've looked into swapping the hdd for a larger one in the past, but cogeco was way behind in keeping up to date firmware... Has cogeco pushed updated firmware to these yet to allow external drives/remove capacity limit on internal drives?

Thanks

There is no new firmware for the 6400 series PVR's that will automatically recognize a larger HD than 160gb's, but there is a place that sells "PRE- Formatted" HD's that apparently will work with these PVR's

The Place is called HDTV sales »www.hdtvsales.ca/ and they sell a 500gb and a 1Tb drive. Please note that you need a special screwdriver to be able to do the swap and I believe they also carry this tool.
