    Does anybody know, if there are special solutions for the Hard Disk storaging for the Cube?
    800 GB are much, so one needs about 4 HDs with 250 GB.

    Do a search and you will find threads about this. FWIW I believe that it is actually only(!) 500GB data.

    Ok, 500 GB is a bit easier to handle...
    Maybe there will be more 300 GB HDs until summer,

    I also think (although I may be wrong) that it was said that the data is compressed, and it was suggested that 2 x 250GB drives should be enough, even accounting for the empty space that should be left on each drive for streaming efficiency.

    Thanks DG for your answer!

    I'm actually counting what the standard cube will _really_ cost, beyond the library itself...

    actually, until there are no more specific tests, i don't know if it even makes a sense to buy the cube for just one computer (G5, 2.5 DP)...
    So there's probably the need for an additional PC, a soundcard, some cables etc...
    costs over costs...
