[mythtv-users] Best Hardware

>3.4 +/- P4 OR Duel Xeon (64bit)
>SATA HDDs (4-6 drives, all 300G+)

Out of curiosity (since other people have mentioned similar
storage for their mythtv machines), what does one do with upwards
of 1 terabyte of storage for a mythtv box? I mean, I realize that
HD needs a lot of space, but with that much space you could
easily store 100+ hours of HDTV. Why? Are you guys collecting
entire shows by the season, do you not watch anything for 3
months at a time and then have a weeklong marathon session, or
is most of the storage used for non-mythtv purposes?
Just curious.
