[mythtv-users] Going to add HD-- anyone with the WD "green" sata drive?

[boehm100 at comcast.net]

I've been running a single 1TB WD Green SATA drive since early fall. I love it. Its VERY quite and slightly faster than the SATA Segates it replaced. I some times record 2 HD and 2 SD show at the same time, and live commercial scan, while watching an HD show. I've had very little problems doing this. Occasionally it take a long time (5-10 sec) lag to start the HD playback, under these conditions, and on a rare occasion, on playback, after a commercial skip, I did see some frame rate issues but that was easily resolved by a Pause/Play cycle. I doubt these issues have anything to do with the green drive but probably have to do with trying to do this much with a single drive. Other than those two very rare and reasonable issues I've had no problems.
