Template:Information appliance Apple TV 1 (silver) is no longer available from Apple, but can be purchased from alternative sources (eBay, kijiji, craigslist, etc.).

Editor note: find/create guide for upgrading the internal HDD on the Apple TV 1.

Apple TV 1 uses a 2.5 inch PATA hard drive that is easily upgradable. It can also be removed completely, having the ATV1 boot directly from a USB drive, in order to make system even more silent and use less heat/energy (results may vary depending on USB drive).
