You were just upgraded to version 2.5 of the software. And to be clear, this applies only to DirecTivo combo unit, not to the stand alone units. This has been in the works for a long time (all DirecTivos have had the hardware built in). I don't know whether or not it is in response to UltimateTV.You do need to run a second cable from the dish to your DirecTivo to have the second tuner operate, and I have tried it out. It's fantastic. The ability to record 2 shows, or record one while watching another is fantastic. No more conflicts.
As for adding an additional hard drive, yes I've done that as well and it's extremely easy if you're comfortable doing very simple things to any computer, specifically plugging in a hard drive. There are amazing people out there on the web that have created fantastic web pages and programs to allow this. For more information check out:
