Default DVR Question

Hey guys

I have a DirecTV HDVR and I was thinking about putting a bigger HDD in it to have more recording space. Have any of you ever done this before?

I know I can plug an external HDD into it from the eSATA port on the back and it will shut down the internal HDD and use that one, but I would rather put one inside so it can't be seen. I know when one is plugged into the eSATA it will automatically format and start using the external, so I was wondering if I replace the internal if it would do the same?
