Apricorn DVR Expander gets welcome makeover
By Chris Davies on Thursday, Apr 9th 2009 No Comments
When it launched back in January, you couldn’t really fault Apricorn’s DVR Expander for its specifications: 1.5TB of storage for plug’n'play expansion of your DVR, with a range of connectivity to suit various different TiVo, Cable and DirectTV receivers, among others. What was less impressive was the casing; it looked cheap and, certainly in the case of the pink unit Apricorn bizarrely chose for their press shots, not something you’d want sat next to your TV. Now the DVR Expander has had a makeover: the same impressive capabilities, but with a far slicker case.
