Hi, I have just pruchased the EX7000 and have been trying to find an answer to this question on this website and on Google, but would anyone be able give me a rough estimate of the filesizes for a recording? i.e. if I recorded an hour of tv in SD, how much space would this take up? Also if I recorded in HD, again how big will the difference be? I don't really need hundreds and hundreds of recording hours, as I'll probably transfer films I want to keep to my pc but would want enough space so I can time shift. I'm going to buy either a external HDD or a pendrive, but may have to go for the external HDD due to their high capacity. Thanks

SD is typically 2GB per Hour, not sure about HD, I would guess 8GB per Hour.
