With no power, DV tapes are just as useless as a hard drive, unless you're using gerbils on a wheel to power your playback.

We're just cutting some stuff Jay-Rock shot for me with his EX-1. It's gorgeous, and has given Tom some serious camera lust. He uses an HV-20 with the WD-H43, and says it doesn't even come close.

But the HV-20 is consumer gear, the EX-1 is in a whole different ballpark.
I meant the individual hard drives each require their own power. The less things that need power in my office the better. My electrical capability is just about maxed out! The Ex-1 looks pretty cool though for when I do go tapeless.
