My history in Media Center often grows to over 5,000 entries (I then delete
the history). I have recordings spread over 3, 4 or 5 hard drives, depending
on if I feel like plugging in more external hard drives. But even when I
only have my 2 internal hard drives and one external hard drive of 1TB in
size, I can get a couple of thousand entries in less than a weeks time.
I suspect that Media Center sees the external hard drive come online and
decides these are recordings that it should add to the history list. I never
shut off the external hard drive, and always leave it plugged into the USB
port. I hibernate the computer often (sleeping has never worked, with any
o/s, on this 4 year old computer).
When 2TB sized hard drives come out, perhaps next year, I will be able to
replace my 2 internal hard drives and forget about the external hard drive.
Then I suspect this history anomaly will not occur. Or I might buy a new
computer that supports more than 2 sata drives, and also supports eSata,
which my 1TB external drive does support.
