I want a large drive to use in a PVR which will be used to record SD and HD content. I'm thinking 1TB would be perfect since most shows I will end up deleting, only keeping my absolute favorites. Also, there might be times where I'd want to record 2 shows (SD and/or HD) while watching an already recorded show so I'd like something really fast, quiet and cool would be nice too.
