BM7000s Hard Drive

[leon632]

I just wondered what hard drives people were using and how they performed on the blade.
I had an old 120gb 2.5" IDE drive which I bought a caddy/enclosure for.
The hard drive runs off the power from the receiver and works fine recording HD channels.
The only thing is mine doesn't seem fast enough to perform timeshift on the HD channels and I can't watch a pre recorded HD channel whilst recording another HD channel.
Just wondered if anyone else had these problems.

So I didn't get any responses so I trawled through some other sites.
Most of the hd channels are only broadcast in 1080i so if I change my av settings from 1080p to 1080i this solves the problem. I couldn't find any info on people recording a hd channel whilst watching another hd channel though.
