[QUOTE="alexeix, post: 599254, member: 11252"] Hi there, Quick hardware question...is an external USB2 HDD (5400rpm) going to be fast enough (transfer speed) for recording and playing back HD-TV via Media Portal? Or would I need to use an eSata drive? Ideally, I'd like a drive which doesn't require a separate power supply, but my PC doesn't support power-over-esata, so if USB2 is good enough, I'll use that. Thoughts please? [/QUOTE]
