There's nothing out of the ordinary with the hdds in PVRs, nothing that you can't get in a consumer level unit seeing as you can buy enterprise level hard drives from a huge amount of places. Remember that enterprise level hard drives have performance requirements far in excess of storing video.
There are a couple of ranges that are aimed at PVRs (Seagate DB35 and Maxtor QuickView) but again, they contain nothing that you can't find in other consumer level drives, just the usual temperature and error diagnostics that you'll find in any enterprise level drive, they're just marked up.

http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=615 <-- PVR HDD
http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=733 <-- desktop hdd
there is a difference and the pvr ones are more costly because there are designed to last longer ie not being affected by tempruate like normal hard disj. you wont notice the differnec eif you open the v+ or skyhd box up they look the same to normal hdd but the itnernals are different

I would pay 249 + 30 install if there was no monthly fee. The remote record seems a great feature even better if you can remote record from iPhone , Android Blackberry etc.
