Do DVR'S work independently of each other?

I am thinking of getting a second DVR as an upgrade for my HD receiver on a second set. If you have two HD DVR's can you record different shows on them during the same time period? In other words are they independent?. If not what would be the purpose in having more than one DVR?Thank you.
