I do care, but haven't seen a problem.  Have you?  If so, please
elaborate!  I'll take it for face value that it does some ugly SQL
accessing during scheduling.  What does that translate to in terms of
system resources?  Is it enough to swamp an IDE drive by itself, or do
you only have problems on IDE when it is doing scheduling while
simultaneously trying to record 4 shows at the same time?  When you
move to SATA, what does the utilization drop to?

Thanks!
