Verizon doesn't have a three tuner DVR yet (haven't heard any whispering about them getting one anytime soon either) but they have a two tuner recorder (similiar to what's out now, record two shows + watch a recorded program) but it DOES have the larger space.
you can request one by logging in at verizon.com/fiostvcentral -> My TV -> Set Top Box -> bottom right banner ad about ur DVR > Click and fill in the info to be placed on the request list, some people have reported success with dropping by a Local store and requesting one, I'd call before driving if you did that.
This is their new one, and they have the manuals for all the receivers online by clicking here.
Motorola 7232-P2 HD DVR
Cisco CHS 435 HD DVR
The Cisco is available in select areas, and the Motorola is their work horse that has wider general availability.
They both come standard with 500 GB hard drives, compared to the older models that had 160 GB hard drives.
This is the comparison with recording time.

it's located under "quick links"
I found it. Thanks! 
It's buried a couple of levels down (at least the way I found it) on MyVerizon 2.0
No one in this thread has mentioned there is a $39.99 one time upgrade fee. 
I've got a 6416-2 so I guess I couldn't use an external drive to expand.

Correct. Only the 7000 series have the eSATA port that will allow external storage expansion.
Since you have a 6416, I would suggest trying to do the exchange at a local Verizon store (assuming there is one near you that carries STBs) as reports are that there won't be a charge that way. Unfortunately, customer service can't deal with specific models for distribution and to assure you get the "latest" model DVR (QIP-7232) you must go through the $40 link 
I really think Verzion needs to re-visit their upgrade policy for 6000 series boxes.

Agreed. I submitted the request for upgrade so we'll see what happens. 
I'll keep you all posted as to the result.
