Hard disk for DM 8000

I recomend an internal Western Digital Caviar Green SATA HDD.

Ther is no IDE interface on DM8000.

500gb seagate or better samsung works fine!
no heatprobs!

Thanks Bpl, I noticed it is a SATA internal drive.
Will it accept 500 GB without overheating or better get a 320GB HDD. 7200RPM or 5400RPM.

Yes no problem! I have a WD green power 640 GB in my DM8000.

1 TB will work to.

The WD green power disks is quiet, low heat and low power consumption.

will 1.5 Tb work in dm8000 ?
im not sure if i should buy 1Tb or 1.5 ????
To buy or not to buy , that is the question

WD20EADS (2TB) Green Power also works fine

Will be getting a disc myself this week , thanks for the advice

Went for the Western Digital Caviar Green 1.5Tb.

I have 1.5 tb segate on it when I duy from dubai rssele with dvd writer
it work fine

I´ve got two dm8000.

One has Seagate 750 GB 3.5 Sata HDD
One has Samsung 1 TB 2.5 (Notebook) Sata HDD attached with a "Sharkoon HDD Vibe Fixer Pro" (2.5 --- 3.5).



2.5 Notebook hdd (
Samsung HM-M101MBB 1TB
wins:

Starts more quickly when idle (after standby) and you don´t hear it.
Additional plus: 2.5 disks don´t get as warm as 3.5.

3.5 - I always hear when recordings are being done and I often see Enigma2 "spinning wheel" when starting disk from idle state.
Will replace the 3.5 disk one day and get 2.5 + Sharkoon for that dm8000, too.
