Last update solved a lot of issues

I had a lot of issues, lt would crash (more like freeze ). I had to restart the backend to get hdhomerun to be seen. Going to 29.1 has cleared those and other issues.
Question: Having a HTPC, do you ever worry about noise affecting the hard drive?

Hard drives are definitely susceptible to data errors caused by vibration. So having your HTPC case right next to a speaker, especially a subwoofer, is probably not a good idea if you use spinning disks.

Due to the heat and noise generated by their backend, many people put it in a closet or basement. They then use a low-power, fanless PC with FLASH-based storage for their frontend.
