Chances are you will get a newer Black one, but no way to tell till it gets there, lots of times they will replace it with what you had, other times not.

When my HR20-700 finally dies, I hope to get another one just like it.

Sounds like it was probably the hard drive that went bad.

There is a good chance that they will extend your contract now for an aditional 2 years.

I ask the rep/tech that question. and they simply said no, there is no renewal of contract, plus ive been a customer since 2001. they just said will replace the receiver at no cost.

I think that has something to do with weather or not you have the Protection Plan, I think if you DO have it, they won't extend your contract.
