I haven't been able to figure this out because I have some friends telling me that when recording videos that having one hard drive is no different from having two, but others say its a lot better to have two. Can anyone tell me what is true and if possible support it with evidence? Thanks

I guess if you set up a RAID 0 config, writing to the disks will become much faster since RAID 0 copies small parts of the file to each hard drive. I don't know how many times faster though. Other than that, two regular hard drives would just increase the amount of space you can use.
