DVD Recorders with HDD Drives?

Question

Hello

Can anyone recommend a good Multi Region DVD recorder with say 160GB hard disc, that can allow me to watch a DVD then record on the hard disc at the same time

Many thanks

Andrew

Answer 1

I have Sony RDR-HXD860, which I bought last year. It is a DVD recorder with a 160Gb Hard Drive and an integrated Freeview receiver.

It is absoluetely superb, and has changed the way I watch TV. Playback is also excellent, and it upscales the picture to 1080i.

My Dad has a Toshiba unit that does the same kind of thing, but it is horrendously complicated, whereas the Sony works like a charm.

I believe that a new range has since been released, but have a look on Kelkoo and you should be able to pick one up for around £300. Single and multi region players available, so make sure you specify you want multi.

Hope this helps.

Any of the Liteon HDD recorders will do the trick. (Check out Ebay) I personally use a Funai 250Gb HDD one that I bought on Ebay 6 months ago & it is superb. It costs about £160 & was delivered within 2 days.
