[RFI] AT&T U-Verse RFI?

Yup..that is correct..but you *can* transfer data from the external drive 
back to the internal drive to view it.  If memory serves, one couldn't 
record a program directly to the external drive, you recorded the program on 
the internal drive, then 'moved' it to the external drive for storage.
