I purchased a 160gb drive and ran it through Instant Cake. I know the limit is 137gb but I wanted to max it out. Anyway, I didn't see if it formatted the drive to 137gb. Is the drive now set up for the max?

137GB (per drive) is the limit; its not an InstantCake "thing" - its a function of the TiVo "kernel" (a portion of the operating system) that is only capable of addressing the first 137GB of each drive).

How many hours does 137gb translate into?

It depends on your unit. Check your system information screen.
