No, Internal storage is not included... It accepts a USB 2.0 input. Personally, I just grabbed a 64GB flash drive I had sitting on my desk and plugged it in. Reformatted it with the Roku app and all was well! The nice thing about this is you are not paying for storage that you don't need / want. If you don't have a need for 8TB of DVR storage, you don't need to plug it in. I actually have a Network Storage device and have installed a different app on my laptop which lets me extract DVR recordings and move them over to my NAS for permanent storage thus allowing me to just use that 64GB flash drive. Good luck.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You have to add an external hard drive. I am using the WD easystore 3.0 2 TB, its not one of the recommended hard drives but is working great so far.
I would recommend:
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The Lite does not come with internal storage. I'm not sure a USB memory stick or card will work with this. We connected a recommended USB portable drive to ours.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The "lite" products have no on-board storage. They do come with access to 40G of cloud storage, which is a beta feature, and one that doesn't seem to work for me. In fact, I'm having bandwidth problems and I don't know if it is related to this feature. I've only been working with the Tablo for about a week (after purchasing a 1T outboard drive), so I'm still trying to figure things out. I'm getting a report of insufficient bandwidth when attempting to record two shows at once. In summary, buy an outboard drive, and be sure your upload speeds are within spec.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You have to use a USB external storage device. I tried to connect to my NAS with no success. Ended up attaching a USB3 portable hard disk.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This unit does not come with a hard drive. However, it was very easy to install one that I already had. I had a hard drive that is powered through the USB port and I simply plugged it in and the Tablo formatted it and I was able to use it immediately.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Tablo has 64gb included example 7 minutes of 1080hd =1gb (less than 10 minutes you need to add a hard drive)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
