.. about 10 grand.
HD uses PCI style plugin cards that connect to select digi interfaces for I/O but also provide a certain amount of DSP power for plug processing (TDM) without taxing the host system. The specific plugins for TDM generally cost a bit more than native RTAS versions and they only run on HD systems.
There are also some track limitation differences and other little odds and ends. I'd say when your ready for PTHD you'll know the differences.
