Its a 40 hour series 2 Tivo. I took it apart to clean and i see its a
regular maxtor internal desktop hard drive, Im wondering if it has to

Yes! I have two 350GB drives in my tivo. Yes, you do have to do things to the disks first. See the Tivo underground for complete instructions for how to do this. http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=8
Or just search google for tivo hacks.

VERY Easy. Take a look here:

Simply buy a drive, do the upgrade, and away you go. 1 hour or less!
