[QUOTE="level20peon, post: 170039, member: 28613"] Hello hermy65, I will try to help with some of your concerns... if you control the server via RemoteDesktop / UltraVNC or similar you won't need a video-card at all. Even if you want to control the TV-Server backend directly on this PC you don't need a fancy card, onboard will do the trick. Depends on what you plan to store ;). If you are planning to store several movies, TV-series and recordings you will most definetely run out of space in less than a year. If you just plan to do your TV-recordings on this HDD it will fit your needs in my opinion. You can watch and record different shows on a single dvb-tuner if you are using the TV-server.
