For the SF8008, the SF8008 Twin and the SF8008 Combo.

The image applies to all versions of the sf8008 series.
Only the 'm' series is a modified image.

so my questions

1 can i install internal hdd in Octagon sf8008?

 

2 can i install internal hdd in PULSe 4K?

3 does iPULSe 4K has gigabit port?

[el bandido]

PULSe 4K supports internal hdd.

 

My speed tests shows PULSe 4K Does Not have gigabitt port.

 

PULSe 4K also advertises a dvb/s/s2 blindscan that does not work. Manufacturer is not interested in fixing this.

Other than the broken blindscan, PULSE4k seems to be a decent twin tuner receiver.

thank you, thats a shame looks like a very nice receiver but gigabit port is required, so thats a no

 

 

then is left Octagon sf8008 does it support internal harddisk?

[alabama]

I think the Zgemma H7S is possible too.

HDD in

Gbit LAN

Twin Sat Tuner & DVB-T2 Tuner

 

...oh, this receiver is at the moment not available

looks very good

shame only 1gb ram but ok i see most boxes seem to have 1gb

any idea when it should be available again?

 

now still trying to find out if i can put a internal hdd in Octagon sf8008?

[rantanplan]

No there is no possibility of an internal HDD.
Your original question was also 'good and cheap'.
Nothing else is currently available in the price range.
Especially not with the range of functions.

[speed]

i see zgemma available on aliexpres would that be original box or clone?

[mimisiku]

It’s from China and ultra-cheap. You can’t clone them any cheaper

[Taykun345]

If you want to step up a bit there is Edision MIO 4K+, main weakness is its remote control. Otherwise receiver is very good.

Cheap twin dvb-s/s2 tuner receiver with internal hard drive and gigabit port....

This reminds me of a guy that wanted a cheap car with a top speed of 300 km/h.
 

Some things you have to pay for.

[el bandido]

Look at the Octagon SF4008. This is an unsupported receiver from the manufacturer, but it is a cheap twin dvb-s/s2 tuner receiver with internal hard drive and advertises a gigabit port.
