I have a 60GB SSD on a intel NUC and it is becoming full occasionally, depending on my recording needs. Some of my TV recordings are daily (such as news etc) and others are once a week (such as sitcoms) I was thinking about keeping daily recordings and subsequent deletion on the SSD (frequent read/writes) and store the weekly recordings on an external USB stick (flash) 32GB because i only access those recordings once a week (fewer read/writes). I mounted the external USB as a 32GB XFS filesystem under /media/usb How do i record different programs on different drives in LinHES myhtv ? |

Wow, that is a tight system nowadays... Anyways, to answer your question, Look into defining additional storage groups and specifying the correct storage group in your recording settings. https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Manage_Recordings#Storage_Options Hope this helps.. |

spend $100 and get an external drive. This external 4TB drive is on sale this week. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product. ... 6822178741 That would be 66.7 times the amount of storage you currently have. |

Is there any advantages of plugging in an SSD, Matt? |

Simple answer "Faster is always better" If you are talking about an SSD over SATA, PCI-E, or M.2 then yes it would be much faster and better. If you are talking about an SSD in a USB container then even USB3 is your bottleneck not the drive itself. a full 1080P, Dolby surround sound ATSC, MPEG 2 stream OTA is around 20 Megabits per second and USB 2 could handle 480 Mbits/s and USB 3 can handle 5 gigabits per second total. So if you have a lot of things on the USB bus you might run into issues, and some internal things like WiFi are sometimes on the USB bus for simplicity. |
