I have two HD tuners, and plan on getting two more. And, I have 4 SD tuners. I think bandwidth is a legitimate concern for me :)<br><br>Right now I have about 350Gb in 4 scsi drives on a raid controller. I have the controller configured to not raid the disks, and return individual volumes, so that MythTV can manage it's own storage.
<br><br>Since scsi disks are expensive, I was hoping to move to NAS's. But -- maybe the better approach is to start replacing the scsi disks . . not sure . . I'm a cheap bastage.<br><br>-Dave<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">
