Yes. It's just a laptop-sized hard disk: 2.5" size.
Put one in, either 20Meg or bigger and it'll work.
Plenty of discussion around: try Google Groups.

Bear in mind that you won't get much TV on a 20Meg disk :-)

I sound like I know what I'm talking about, but don't
be fooled.

Heh, someone else who gets numbers wrong by a factor of 1024 (I do it
all the time, talking about a 256K RAM upgrade when I mean Meg etc.).

When I were a lad, fitting a megabyte onto a hard disk meant a thing the
size of a washing machine...

Gig, dammit, gig. Sorry, I am old and remember when 'gig'
was science fiction.

I thought it was a type of bag g. Don't worry, you're not the only
one, I'm doing it constantly (I get totally blown away that the
computing power and disk storage in my house is way more than was in the
whole of the UK when I started work!).

Hehe. I still have a 5MB Rodime for which I payed over GBP300,
secondhand.

I have some DEC disks holding 1MB (on a single platter!), they cost well
over $500 new. Not to mention the drives (upwards of $2000 as I
recall)...
