2 channel digital set top boxes - recommendations?

I appreciate that this is not quite a computer issue.

I'm looking at going digital and wondered if there's anyone out there who could recommend a best solution, preferably without the need to take out a second mortgage, for either a STB or a PVR to attach to my analogue TV that would give me the option of recording one digital channel while watching another.

I have a Philips DVR7300 HDD that's not all that old and has 250 gig capacity on its HD, so I was wondering if I'd be able to use that for recording from a twin channel STB. (Spent the morning trolling through sites on the net and didn't find the answer to that question. Can I record a digital signal onto my old HDD?)

Appreciate any advice and thanks in advance.
