    my recordings are saved on a NAS
    Direct recording to the NAS, or record to SSD/HDD then copy to NAS?


    is in an recommondation to use a RAM disk instead for the timeshifting part?
    I'd use RAM disk instead of SSD if there is no regular HDD available.

    Direct recording to NAS (tvservice user changed from local system to a named NAS user).

    I use ramdisk to decrase SSD's write cycle.

    In my setup:

    SSD for the OS+MP
    ramdisk (2GB for timeshift)
    NAS for recordings

    with wich product you setup the ramdisk?
    whats the total amount of memory you got in your system?

    on wich parameter does the size of the ramdisk depend? (how many tuners for example?)

    Direct recording to the NAS, or record to SSD/HDD then copy to NAS?

    Direct recordings (working fine)

    ok thnx now gonna concentrate how to setup a correct sized ramdisk

    full ram 4GB, 2GB for ramdisk. (superspeed ramdisk plus 10)

    I have 2 toners (1 analog, 1 dvb-t).

    Hi there,

    RAM Drive for Timeshift too - 6GB (soon to be 8GB)
    SSD for OS & MePo
    HDD for recordings and other content

    Works a treat - nice and snappy :D

    I have used several configs for NAS, my latest is based on AMD Zacate E-350 and was dirt cheap. Fitted it with 4 x 1,5 TB internal drives and a 1,5 USB drive for backup of critical stuff. It has 8 GB DDR3 RAM. I use an external powerbrick with a 120W PicoPSU.

    this is so confusing.

    im assuming a NAS operates without a graphics card so it has a web interface... so it doesnt run windows OS at all?
