[QUOTE="porky996t, post: 923646, member: 75318"] Hi Breese, Your new set up sounds great, and I am certainly interested in hearing how the build goes. I'm certainly no expert on MP and don't have the knowledge to comment on the kit you have chosen, but I have just built a new server and I am in process of getting everything working with it, hence my interest in your new project. I'm using a AMD Phenom II 6 core, 16Gb of RAM and a 60Gb SSD and it just flies. (would be even better if I could get the Gigabit network running at a higher speed than 100Mbps though :( ) I went for the 6 core as I now transcode everything into .m4v format, and it is really quick at conversion (using Handbrake). I can transcode an hour of full HD recorded TV in 30mins, so your FX CPU should be even quicker. I don't have a raid setup, but have simple backups which mirror the main HDD's i.e 2Tb Movies disk has a 2Tb movies backup disk etc. I run this headless as it is in my basement and just access it via Remote Desktop Connection. I am due to fit two new quad tuners into it. These are a quad DVB-S/S2 and a quad DVB-T/T2 and are both manufactured by TBS >>[URL='http://www.tbsdtv.com/products/']here[/URL]<< I'm not familiar with the US format for terrestrial transmissions, so I cannot say whether the DVB-T/T2 card would work with your system.
