Well, I have to say I have my suspicions on my Green 1TB which I put in my TivoHD b/c everyone said a green would be cooler/better for DVRs...thing has been choppy at times and missing bits of shows, and pretty slow to respond...and pretty sure the cable signal was fine, so it seems to be the HD-I think if I upgrade again or decide to replace this drive, I'd do it with a Black, heat-be-damned! :P
