The KMS drivers do not support that video yet. It will likely work in console mode.

That drive is meant for low latency for video recording, no idea whether it is suited for normal usage. I would avoid it in favor of a WD Black or Red drive, or preferably an SSD.
 
Let me make sure I understand:
Radeon HD 8400 is not supported.
HDD is not recommended.
Any suggestion for cheap ITX motherboard with fanless CPU?
Thanks.
 
The KMS drivers for X do not fully support the Radeon 7000- or 8000-series yet. If you do not plan to use X on that system, it would not matter.

All I know about the Purple drives is that they are meant for surveillance systems recording video. It will make compromises in some areas to minimize latency. Whether it matters for general computer use, or whether WD recommends for or against that, I don't know.
 
Thanks, would this be a better choice?
