this I am not sure about
I think they should survey Tivo owners next time.
Perfect stress-testing environment. Mine runs at over 50C most of the time,
and it's writing 2 video streams 24/7. What more could you do to punish a
drive? :)
and the drives that are in them are consumer IDE drives.
I will admit that I've removed to cover from my tivo to allow it to run
cooler, and I'm still on the origional drive + 100G drive I purchased way
back when (7+ years ago) before I removed the cover I did have times when
the tivo would die from the heat (Los Angeles area in the summer with no
A/C)
