Mark I have this Sony model and it does not have twin tuners for freeview for dual recording. There are some here on this web page that can dual record but dont have built in DVD drives for archiving. Some of them have links further down the page to screen shots and other links. www.pvrjunction.co.uk/compare

No, it's just the SVR-S500.

The new Sony DVD/HDD models: 870, 970, 1070 have 1x analogue + 1x digital tuner, but only one can be used at a time.
