About the same complexity as adding a second drive to an empeg.

Now if only my other enhancement project were that easy.. I've soldered in a second internal PCIe slot, for eventual use with a Crystal-HD decoder board. But the slot is not working yet -- probably need to pull out the mobo and check for missing 100nF capacitors on the PCIe traces underneath or something.

Or maybe just drop the idea now that I've discovered smplayer for video playback. Seems to handle most 720p stuff just fine using only the basic netbook CPU/video. Flashplayer/youtube is still slow as a dog for HD, but local HD video files now play well enough.
