external hard drive connected via USB port.
The TV set stores the recordings in temporary digital storage (time shift buffer).

70-120 min (HD=HDTV programs). This information only represents approximate values,
which can vary
depending on the volume of data in the recording. When using an internal or external mass
storage device (hard disk), the recording duration is much longer.
