[QUOTE="porky996t, post: 798511, member: 75318"] I did find a US Seller on eBay with 8Gb RAM for 60 odd quid which wasn't too bad. There was no logical process that I went over to come up with an 8Gb RAM Drive. RAM seems so inexpensive these days so I thought 'why not' and I didn't want to get any grief from 'management' for possibly buggering up a stable system. I just thought 8Gb would be ample for timeshifting as I have two clients running off the main lounge HTPC and the GF cannot seem to grasp pressing the stop button when she has finished watching live TV on one client before watching it another. :rolleyes: Also, as I don't get chance to stay put in one room when a TV show is running I am forever skipping back through what I have missed. Additionally, I have looked into getting the TBS Quad satellite card to replace my current TBS dual one and allow me to utilise my quad LNB and thus could have all 4 tuners locked onto a HD signal (the GF does watch and record some sh!te :wtf:) Last week I put the TV Guide on and she was watching one channel and recording five others simultaneously. I have tried telling her about tuner numbers and channels etc, but it really is wasted breath. Conversely, I am supposed to understand and appreciate the fine nuances of shoes & handbags. M [/QUOTE]
