New satellite box

[noddyrams]

Hi, just after some quick advice on a satellite box please.

I am helping a friend get a setup of the following:
Dual sat feed to record freesat
Ability to install openvix and use IPTV
Internal HDD installed

Now I use the vu+ solo 2 but his budge is more £120 so was thinking a zgemma but I'm unsure on which would be best for this setup? Or what about a formula 1 box?

Any help and advice would be much appreciated
Thanks

Great thank you.

Does it allow an internal HDD?

And am I allowed to ask where to purchase from or not?

It is only external HHD yes,Look at the technomate nano which is a fab box also and internal hard drive option

Tiviar is an overgrown F1 which takes an internal HDD. Triple tuner £99

Google both boxes and compare. They both have same specs but Tiviar innards are in a bigger if not 'nicer' looking box so as to accommodate the HDD :👍::)
