Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Does everybody have a noisy TIVO or is it just me?

Mine is a 1Tb version. Noise comes from two locations.

1. The TV card sits loosely in its slot. It vibrates with a really irritating buzz. I have dampened this with a bit of Blutac, but this only works for a while.
2. There is an annoying hum from deep inside the unit. This gets amplfied by the wooden furniture it's on. I've partially solved it by placing foam pads under each foot.

I had hoped a TIVO box might be better quality than some VM equipment. Apparently its not.
