I'm starting to use my system as a tivo basically, using snapstream.com
I'd like to put a 200 or 250gb drive in there to use for the digital videos. I'd probably just make one huge partition.
My current system setup is:
1st IDE: 120gb WD 12000JB
2nd IDE: dvd burner and dvd rom
pata raid controller: (2) 60gb IBm drives master and slave on 1st channel (2nd channel is empty).
Right now i dont have the 2 drives on the raid controller in a raid configuration. I'm debating on mirroring them or just using the 2 drives seperately.
I also have a SATA raid controller on the system that has nothing on it.
My boot drive is the master drive on the raid controller.
Any suggestions as to a QUIET 200-250gb drive? I'm open to either pata or sata. If i get a pata drive i'll probably get a 250gb ... 200gb if i get a sata.
