I used to do this with a usb flashdrive but have switched to CompactFlash connected with a CF->SATA controller. Also only have one drive in the box for recording (which I'll move to my fileserver eventually). For the harddrive I just set a spindown timeout so it goes to sleep when not in use. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
