I'd certainly consider something like this (decent display, onboard

they were half the price (500UKP is silly), and had a larger quiet/cool
capacity (250gb should be well within their means - SS is the way to go)
for uncompressed 24 bit recording. If and when they can have my money
:-).


How about something that keeps all the storage external? I've been
wondering about this. Not exactly hi-fi though! About 1/10 of the price of
the above box but you seem to need a windows (blech!) pc somewhere...

I did consider something like this as there are lots of them about and they
are pretty cheap but at the end of the day i dont want to have to have my PC
on all the time.
I much prefer the idea of having the storage in the hifi component itself so
it can operate independantly of any PC even if it will cost me a bit (well
ok, a lot) more to get it.
