Hi Folks,
Up until now my system has been happy recording two DVB streams while viewing either a recorded program or time shifting. However tonight I started getting stuttering on one of the recordings. I'm not 100% sure (Because I have just switched to the latest svn), but I think it was caused by a very fragmented disk (lots of red in the xp disk analysis). So the question is what is the best practice for disk maintenance? Currently I'm using an NTFS partition with default settings (the drive is fine SATA, 200Mb two partitions one for the system one for recordings using DMA etc). I've not been de-fragmenting the drive up until now - should I be - how often?
Thanks for any help
Andy
