Okay, I'm trying to figure out the best way to configure my hard drives for my htpc. It is running SageTV server and streaming to two clients over the network, so the hard drive being used for recordings would probably be a little higher than normal.
Hard Drives:
74GB Raptor 10,000 SATA - being delivered Friday
160GB 7,200 SATA - currently main OS drive
250GB 7,200 SATA - file/music storage (cannot change)
So should I keep everything the same and use the Raptor for tv recording pause/play features, etc since it has the fast speed and it will help seek times for sending files over the network or use that as my main drive?
The computer is pretty much just used to run the Sage server and occasional web browsing. Nothing on the main OS would be very hard drive intensive.
I could use the Raptor as the recordings drive and then the extra space on the 160 for overflow space.
What to do....
