[QUOTE="graham.reeds, post: 691026, member: 57894"] Just to put my hat in the ring. I put all the TV-box sets I buy I use DVD Decrypter to rip the discs to hdd. I then use handbrake to convert them h264/ac3 passthru. A 42 minute episode takes between 900mb and 1200mb with no loss of quality - a 8gb disc of CSI ends up as 4gb. I normally run them through with 424 width and target the video with 10mb a minute (about 420mb per file). I would love to retain the original quality but I calculated I would need roughly 2 TB of space to hold just the ones I own let alone all the ones I've downloaded, but before then I need to decide what case/mobo I am going to move to.
