I have used one of your drives on an SA8300 with great success.  I upgraded to an SA8300HD.  When I boot the set-top as before, a message tells me that the hard drive has been detected and warns about unplugging it, etc.  But the drive is clearly not being used for recording (i.e. 10% free space with or without the drive).  Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Excellent - it now works. I turned off the set-top without powering it down, plugged in the hard drive, turned the box back on and it asked if I wanted to format the drive, etc.
If it might help others, I am on Time Warner Cable in Durham, North Carolina with a SA8300HD running the Navigator software.
Thanks for the quick reply and help.
