TiVo?? I know it's Linux inside, and I've been "concerned" what will 
happen when that drive (which is never idle) will give out, but I'm not 
sure I really want to know how bad it is. Mine's been running almost 
non-stop for almost 2 1/2 year now... Every time I see some bizarre 
anomalies in the video or audio stream, I have to wonder whether it's 
the TiVo drive or was corrupt data coming through the digital cable 
network.

By the way, $89 is a bit steep for a single-purpose utility, don't you 
think?
