 ====== HDHomeRun SCRIBE DUO and QUATRO ======
+<lead>The HDHomeRun SCRIBE is a self-contained **[[DVR]]** storage device and HDHomeRun tuning device in one unit. The SCRIBE runs a full copy of the DVR software, and does not require a PC or NAS, nor does it require another HDHomeRun tuner. In addition to recording from its own internal tuners, the SCRIBE can record from other HDHomeRun tuners on the same network, so long as they **[[dvr#hdhomerun_network_tuner|support DVR]]**.</lead>
-<WRAP box 60%>
+Multiple SCRIBEs can be used on the same network and will automatically configure themselves. A SCRIBE can also be used along side a [[:SERVIO]] or a [[:dvr:storage#do-it-yourself_bring-your-own-hardware_dvr_storage|DIY DVR storage option]], for additional storage or redundancy.
+\\

+New SCRIBE units include a year of the HDHomeRun DVR subscription service. Additional years of service can be [[:dvr:activation|purchased individually]], or additional SERVIO or SCRIBE purchases can be used to add additional years to an existing account. Without a DVR subscription, the SCRIBE will continue to host all existing recordings and operate as a normal HDHomeRun tuning device. DVR subscriptions are needed for making new recordings.
