At present, yes.

I have read many good reviews and comparisons between Microsofst media 
center.  I am also looking at VideoLan on how it integrates.  As we 
only have one over the air station here, satellite interface is the 
big issue.  I also want HDTV compatibility.

My first issue is the storage array.  I want enough storage space for 
a whole slew of DVD's (so the kids don't have to keep changing them) 
and CD's.

I am ripping CD's now and with the number, I don't want to deal with a 
crash where I have to re-install or re-rip.  RAID array is the best 
option for protection.
