Wow .. I want one :) hmm to be able to record every channel at once...
Probably still not find anything to watch LOL.... oh where was I.

I had same problem disable DMA on the hd to free up bus. :) j/k  Of
course I had one PVR-350 and one harddrive on ancient computer. It was a
pain interfacing the pvr-350 with the 3rd row of beads. ROFL 

Sorry, a little of topic but I'm brainstorming:

So what is the max bandwidth of a typical system bus now a days anyway?
And... what brand 120gb HD would you recommend. I would like to get 2
for less than $150.  Unreasonable?  Also, would a 5400rpm be ok or do I
need the 7200 to stream the video properly. Cache?

You bet.  :)

Yeah, kind of figured. I've also got 7 drives in software RAID on this 
box, so a lot of traffic there, too. (Not like hardware RAID where most
of 
the traffic is on the controller.)

I think I'll probably try (long-term) to just set up my master MythTV 
backend as a storage repository only, and spread the tuners among my 
frontends (and maybe set up another slave backend that's just providing 
tuners.)
