    I’m guessing this will only allow for an external HDD? Looks different with the antenna’s, bit like a router.

    It's on a number of receivers, HD51 has it also, but you need correct A/V leads. Rare to be used nowadays.

    Buy Octagon at your peril, As an owner of the SF4008 i am allowed to state this.

    I personally would never touch another Octagon product ever again, Ask any one on this board
    Who has had reason to contact this manufacturer and they will explain why.
