Do this if you're at all concerned about disk throughput problems.
On my system (one firewire tuner, one PVR 250) I could cause problems by
recording HD, playing back the same HD stream on a delay and recording SD
at the same time. As soon as I put in a new disk and separated recordings
from database/logging, the problems went away.
I can't see the original poster's predicted usage patterns causing any
troubles as long as the database/logging are separated from the
recordings.
