Hi @lauramax
it really depends on each individual programme lengths & the biit rates within them
I haven't looked recently but around a year or so I found On my box
HD recording is typically around 2.5-3.5 Gb per hour
UHD around 7.5-9.0 Gb per hour
P.S. Don't forget some storage is reserved for pause/rewind of the main & mini boxes and other system functions - I am afraid I don't know how much remains for recordings we make

Hi @lauramax
Solely depends on the content format
(ie SD or HD or UHD).
A typical 2 Hr UHD Movie will be Approx 16 GB.
In HD this will be Approx 4GB
In SD 1 GB.
I will let you do the Maths.
Also depends whether you have a 1 TB or 2 TB box
