Contour 2 receiver XG1

Contour 2 receiver XG1 has a hard drive inside. What is on it, who accesses it, is it necessary, can I access it?   Can I get the Samsung XG2 without a hard drive instead?

Thanks

In addition to a receiver, the Arris XG1v3 is also a DVR.  If you want DVR service and to locally store your recordings...as opposed to Cloud Storage...the drive would be necessary.

The Samsung XG2v2 doesn't have a hard drive.
