I am planning to build a WHS in the near future. What type of hard drives should I use? I am planning to transfer two of my WD Black 1TB's, and was also thinking about picking up two WD Green 2TB's. Should I pick up a smaller HD to install the windows on? Or just partition one of the Blacks. (I will have 6 SATA ports).

Trying to stream HD content never worked all that well and my problems went away after moving to Samsung F4s. This is pretty much what I will be doing. Playing back HD content onto my TV. You would recommend the F4's then?

Any way to get an mkv extension to play though WHS? I have a DLNA ready TV which supports the extension, just wondering how to get it to show up since WHS seems to not like mkv. I googles a little bit and its telling me that a registry edit may possibly help. Thanks for any help.

I have a question maybe one of you can answer. I have my WHS connected to my router, which in turn my TV is also connected to my router. I like to play files from the WHS onto my TV. It usually works fine and dandy, except some files like to give me problems. The problem is that it plays for some amount of time, then freezes, and gives me a "disconnected from source" error. I can immediately open back up the server from my TV and resume play from the same spot and it plays for a little while again with the same error popping up on me. The timing is sporadic. Sometimes it happens in 5 minutes, sometimes it can play for 15 minutes. Any ideas?

So recently I have been adding video files to my server and they have not been showing up on my DLNA TV. All other files (the exact same type) have been showing up since I purchased the WHS about a year ago. Any reasons why no newly added files will show up anymore? Thanks.
