[QUOTE="BillyTheFish, post: 647488, member: 82282"] I've been running my system from a WD GP RE2 drive as it's quiet, runs cool and my system is passively cooled. I've had to send it and a raptor I had in another system back as they've gone a bit dodgy. The raptor is a spare so I was wondering if I should stick it in my HTPC. I currently get jerky, stuttery live TV (freeview sd) so I was wondering if I use the raptor for timeshifting and possibly as the system/page drive and then the GP for storage whether that would help my problem or not. I hadn't used the HTPC for a long time and have only just got round to setting it up again. The jerky/stutteryness might be due to the latest release of MediaPortal -I've read that some people are having problems. I suppose it might be also due to drive errors on the dodgy drive I'm currently running off! Anyway, I'm trying to work out where to re-install when I get the RMA replacements from WD. Raptor or just stick with the one WD GP drive. [/QUOTE]
