My DirecTV Hughes Tivo is really loud to me. Is this normal? Sounds like the hard drive is always spinning. This thing is always on too. Is this going to add allot to my electric bill? I think I'll be happy with it over all, but I do miss some of the features my old Sony SAT-B2 had. BTW, for those of you who know about my old Sony shorting out a couple of weeks ago, I plugged it in yesterday and for some reason it works again. Go figure. Gene
