The hard drive you purchase may not have a security key on it but the one in the Virginmedia TiVo will have and it will also have all the software on it that will run the box and therefore if you remove it the box will not work and nor will you be able to transfer that information onto the new drive, why do you think the is a Smartcard in the box.

So a probable expensive mistake and a rather stupid thing to actually advocate doing to equipment they do not own.
