I have the following
1 HR20-100 (W/ Outboard 2-TB HDD)
1 HR20-700
MRV and SWM

I currently have a four way SWM4 splitter (all four outputs are used)
I want to add another HR20-700 I have.
I see several types of 8 way SWM splitters out there...
If they're green lable and SWM, will they work (with MRV)?
Thanks

The green label indicates it works with MRV.

Given you have a 4-way, can't you reconfigure the cables to connect the HR20?

I'd think he should be able to...

You should only have one cable going to each HD-DVR. So a four-way splitter is what you should need.
The HR20-100 should have the cable going from the 4-way to a green-label two-way splitter, with a Band-Stop filter on Sat-In-1 going to one side of the two-way splitter, and then the DECA going to Sat-In 2 and the other side of the 2-way splitter.

The HR20-700 just needs one cable going to the DECA and then the DECA going to Sat-In 1. As would any other HD-DVRs (the HR20-100 is the odd one).

What are you using your other two ports for? (CCK and power-Inserter on it's own run?)

Based on the hardware on the list you "should" have two open ports on the 4way.
Do you have a CCK? if yes gonna venture on a limb and say the PI and the CCK each how thier own lines.
Other wise where are the lines running too?

I have one run to each of the DVRs, one for the power supply and one for the modem (internet)....
I have the modem and power supply located near my UPS....

With some tweaking both of these can be on the same coax, which frees up one port of your 4-way for your new HR20.

What tweeking will let me run the modem and the power supply on one cable?
Also, just so I know, which 8-way splitter(s) will work?

The power supply has an output connector that the CCK [running to your modem] can connect to, thus both are on one coax.

If you want to go with an 8-way:
