-<lead>The HDHomeRun FLEX is similar to the 5th generation CONNECT, but adds a USB port for use with the HDHomeRun [[DVR]] service. Without a USB hard drive connected, the FLEX acts as a [[connect5|CONNECT]]. With a USB hard drive (and DVR subscription) the FLEX acts like a [[SCRIBE]].</lead>

   * With a paid subscription the FLEX can record shows to a hard drive connected to the FLEX's built-in USB port.
   * The USB port can also act as an extended buffer for pausing live TV in the HDHomeRun app, and that pause-buffer feature is free to all users.
-  * Third party DVR services such as Plex, Channels, Jellyfin, Emby, and others, will not use the USB port on the FLEX for DVR storage. Please consult the documentation for those programs about their DVR server requirements.
   * We recommend avoiding USB "thumb" or "stick" drives, as they are normally not designed for prolonged use.
   * Solid State Drives (SSDs) are supported, but not required. A mechanical spinning hard disk drive (HDD) will easily support recording four simultaneous channels at the same time.
