    I had this in the Satellite forum but maybe someone here might shed some light.

    I want to increase the recording capacity of my Pace TDS470N Sky plus box
    and from reading the faqs on digitalspy and avforums I was gonna plump for
    the seagate baracuda 500gig drive (ST3500630A) but when I was checking
    prices and availability on MemoryC.com I noticed they have another model
    (ST3500630AV) which would seem more suited for a pvr:

    Key Features and Benefits
    16-MB cache
    Multiple data streams can be written at once, allowing you to link multiple cameras to the same drive
    Video read/write profiles allow greater control over operation
    Spin-down feature and PowerOn control allow for cooler operation and power savings
    5-year warranty
    Applications
    Digital video surveillance systems
    Digital video surveillance arrays

    Should I try it instead?
