[QUOTE="giantjoebot, post: 153194, member: 26289"] Well I got the drives, Hell I have extra. Its just that this is also a media server. It holds all my movies and music, and I want to put as much hard drive capacity in it as possible. My motherboard can have up to 12 hard drives, but I can only fit 9. 11 if I use drive bays with poor cooling, which I don't really want to do. So if I use a separate drive for time shifting that takes one drive space away from my storage capacity. There was one thing that I was considering, and that was using USB flash drives for timeshifting, but that would wear out eventually since there is a limited amound of read writes that a flash drive can perform. I suppose that I could always replace it, and they are getting cheaper by the day. [/QUOTE]
