Did you read in the HOWTO how it discussed various hardware
requirements?  Any modern harddrive using DMA will have more than
adequate performance with MythTV.  Even the PVR-250 going at full
tilt is only producing 16 mega _bits_ per second; hard drive transfer
speed is measured in mega _bytes_ per second.

Get more drive space versus faster drive space unless you're feeding
lots and lots of frontends from one master backend.
