channels recording at the same time (off the Freeview DVB-S streams), while<br>
also watching something from the same drive?<br>
<br>
Would a Samsung F2EG 1TB drive be enough? Should I go for a couple in Raid<br>
zero, with another IDE drive I already have as the boot one?<br>
<br>
I currently have a 160G IDE, and 2 320G SATA drives all lumped together in<br>
Linux'es native what-ever-it-is setup, and at times in the evenings it gets<br>
mildly laggy.<br>
