Hi it was long ago I got mine, but I seem to recall it only supporting upto a 120gb ( ? ) HD. The Seagates seem to be recommended as working well, as they do. Lincsat has them in his shop Lincsat's Nick-Nacks
Setup is genuinely easy :
power off, plug hard drive in, switch back on. Simples!
If you get a disk not detected or other problem try manually recording ANYTHING just to get it picked up by your 5100. Good luck!
