Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
Thanks to HD DVR and the feature of being able to set it up to record all my shows weekly, I believe I do watch more than I would have with out the HD DVR before I would miss it and realized I missed it and be done now when the time becomes available I watch my shows. For me and my wife it is money well spent and can't imagine going without it now , as for HD because I spend a good deal of money on being able to have HD I choose to watch mostly HD shows and skip all the rest.
