That's what I suspect - yes.
Recording from all 4 cards are about 1 Gigabyte of data in 10 Minutes.
If there was a bigger buffer for the video-stream on the card, this
amount would not be a problem. But a constant 1.6 MB per second is
probably too much for the PCI-Bus since there are always other activities.
The CPU-load is low - about 2.5 % per recording.

Might be that it was better on a SCSI-based system since IDE is not
the optimum solution for video-streaming.
