[mythtv-users] Notebook hard drives

Thus my desire to use the 40GB notebook drive which is slower instead of
the 20GB 7200RPM.

Makes perfect sense when you think about it.

Yes, but the purpose of my post was not to say to buy cheap parts and
what
not (even though with the exception of the PVR250, you *could* easily
get
quality parts in the price range I named), it was to question why he
wants
to use an OLD/small hard drive with a really good, new system.

The fact that he now says hes using a PVR 250, brings this item into
question even more.  everyone knows that the encodes on 250 take up much
more disk space (or has this changed?).  Unless he has a reallly
specialized
use other than a general PVR system, 20gb is nothing.
