Bit torrent is usually really slow based on the upload speed of others so I only want 5Mb for downloading random junk from websites and now that I have the PS3, for downloading content for that too...although that seems to be downloading very slowly for some reason. I could totally live with 1.5 though. I really just don't want to have to reprogram a new DVR.

Anyone know if you can use an external usb drive for DVR's from Dish or Directv to expand storage? We're used to having 590GB of space.
