SageTV + Asus TS Mini Home Server (Intel Atom)?
Hi, folks. Wondering if anyone has any experience running SageTV software on Windows Home Server, and/or some of these low power, single core processors.
I'm looking at getting rid a fair amount of my home computer hardware, and replacing it with this very compact, energy efficient Asus home server: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16859110001 The machine that I've been running Sage on for a few years now is a full size, 3800x2 AMD desktop machine. I do not do any placeshifting, nor do I use Sage to view any videos - I only use SageTV to schedule and record HD Television programs from incoming Time Warner via an HDHomeRun box, I then view the recorded files with other hardware across the network. It's my understanding that I only need ample hard drive speed to make this happen, as the HDHomeRun is simply saving packets to the hard disk. Is my logic sound here? Will the Windows Home Server operating system run SageTV acceptably on such a low power processor as the Atom? |

Okay, based on another forum member's mention of some Foxconn hardware, did a little more research and landed on this little system:
