Previously had the Popcorn Hour A-210th But this sometimes mucked. Depends on suddenly and such stories.
When Dune nothing. And I got to really tormented. Always play a file briefly and then wieterskippen to the next. The popcorn was disembarked at the latest after the tenth file and had hung himself. :-)
The Dune I did not get to his knees. That's what I call reliability. A continuous use over seven hours did not bother him. HDD is btw. a 2TB Samsung Spinpoint F4 (HD204UI). That's nice and quiet and is barely warm.
Filling via the USB slave port comes with 30 to 40 MB / s for USB2 conditions fairly quickly. For smaller file volumes enough for me just fine. For larger quantities, I can take out the hard drive and unceremoniously shove in the PC (Hot Swap).
The operation is even more comfortable than the A-210th You can see the file at 10sec back tilt forward or on the Navi Kreutz with left / right. With top 1min / down. Can scroll using the buttons for menu pages you still 10min forward or backward tilt. With the number keys you can jump nocht percentage forwards or backwards. So 3 is then 30%, 7 70% and so 0 is returned to the beginning of the film. More is hardly possible and this is still the coil normal.
Conclusion:
I can only recommend the H1 because it is extremely reliable plus silent (no fans). Noise can come only from the hard disk.
For the whole Internet-fuss I can not write anything here because I do not need this machine.
