Multi-media files are large. With the ever growing size of our music collection and the addition of PVR capabilities to our media server it became apparent that we would be needing both some serious horsepower and ginormous storage room in order to accomodate our media needs. Over the years we have been steadily upgrading our media server. This system is responsible for both storing music, video and photos as well as recording television programs.
