Advice on SFF PC

[xpronic]

First of all I would just like to thank the members here who helped me before when I was in two minds about building a new full tower PC.


Anywho, I want to build a small form factor PC that'll be used as a PVR. Basically what I need is not an all powerful mini PC (My main PC is running at dual 2.8Ghz!), but a system that'll be sufficient enough for capturing movies & a little editing, capable of watching high definition movies (without it skipping all the time lol), and a pretty big hard disk would be nice aswell.

Also quietness is a must, since I would be using it to watch movies & TV must of the time.

How about this:

Thanks for the link.

Are the Seagate hardrives as quiet as the Samsung Spinpoint drives?

The Seagate 7200.7 (200GB) and the Samsung Spinpoint (80Gb)are the two quietest drives in my collection so I would rate both equally suitable.
