Yes, you can add additional capacity. I added a 500 GB Apricorn DVR xpander to my 8300HD with a SATA cable several months ago. My recording capacity increased from about 30 hours of HD recordings to over 100 hours. Apricorn (and there are other drives from other manufacturers) sell these up to a 1 TB size drive.
