SiliconDust HDHomeRun DVR storage devices
There are two basic options when it comes to using an HDHomeRun-branded DVR storage device:
- SCRIBE - (as a DUO/2-tuner or QUATRO/4-tuner) includes both the tuning hardware of a normal HDHomeRun device along with an internal hard drive and the DVR storage software. In addition to recording from its own internal tuners, the SCRIBE can also record from other HDHomeRun devices on your network. This combination unit can be a good starting point for new users, or be used to expand an existing HDHomeRun device cluster when you want to add tuners and DVR storage at the same time.
- SERVIO - For users who already have existing HDHomeRun tuners, or who want to add more storage space and/or redundancy to their DVR system, the SERVIO contains a large hard drive and runs our DVR storage software.
Do-it-yourself/ Bring-your-own-hardware DVR storage
Already have a NAS (network attached storage), an always on desktop computer, or old unused PC? You can set that up as your DVR storage!

- I have a Western Digital My Cloud (non-home edition only) NAS on my network
