[mythtv-users] Speed/disk access, multiple tuners, multiple myth drives

[Bobby Gill]

My Mythbox specs are a PVR-150 and drive is a WD Sata 320gb 16mb cache.

Currently if the tuner is recording and I try to watch a previous recording
at the same time, I notice slowdown in responsiveness for things like
rewinding/forwarding and whatnot. Now if I add another tuner, would that
make things smoother for playback?

Or another scenario I'm pondering to get things smoove is that I'm thinking
of adding a Seagate 32mb cache drive. Now could I have Myth set up so that
it records LiveTV to one drive and keeps recordings on another?So if it were
to be recording Live TV while I'm watching a previous recording, surely
things would be faster.

Just a bit confused on this, trying to get it a lil smoother as even
deleting files on the drive causes playback to pause, and I have the delete
files slowly option in mythtv-setup checked.

Thanks for any help,
Bob
