Here's a shot of my upstairs rack - excuse the wires, I just redid one of the HDPVR's the other day and haven't bothered to re-run the cables yet:Ĭapture/Media room Media center PC, upstairs. Plenty for now, but I'm a sucker for not recompressing my BD/HDDVD rips so I don't see that space lasting. Overall I've got about 7.5tb of shared disk storage. Right now I use a ReadyNas NV+ I've had for 2-3 years, (4) 1.5tb drives, plus a mirrored pair of 1.5tb drives in my capture box. Storage: I haven't yet gone all fancy-pants like some people here with giant RAID arrays and the like - though I probably will at some point. When you get right down to it, going to the trouble to pull a bunch of (relatively) cheap Ethernet cable wins every time. Wireless just doesn't cut it for serious HD, and I never found a good powerline/coax adapter setup. I did this after the fact (not during construction) and it was no fun at all, but utterly worth it in the end. Network: (2) Cat-6e cables run to each room with a TV from the main media room.
