I have a media center computer, and I would like to use BC3 to sync to another machine.
Normally BC3 copies as fast as possible, and fully utilizes the hard disks. If the media center is trying to record a show at the same time, that would be a problem.
Is there any way to throttle BC3 to use a portion of disk bandwidth, or even better to put it at a lower disk-access priority than other applications? I don't think changing the CPU execution priority would work, since it is more of the priority to the disk that would matter.
Windows offers the Background Intelligent Transfer Service, but that is more about using idle network bandwidth than disk bandwidth.
Does anyone have any ideas how to approach this? I didn't find any related keywords in the help or this forum, but maybe there is a capability in BC3 and I'm just looking for the wrong term.
