Hi guys!
I need to buy an external hard drive to use with Protools and my powerbook 17" 1.5 GHz.
I would like to know what do you think about the differences between a LaCie Big Disk Extreme 320GB with a Firewire 800 - Oxford 912-8Mb and a
Maxtor OneTouch™ II - 300GB with a Firewire 400 - Oxford 911-16 Mb.
Everytime a read a review it's always about people that use the hd for pro video/photo, I would like to know something about the ProAudio needs.
Thanks!

QUOTE (ourmanflinty @ Dec 9 2004, 23:06) You need to find out where the problem is, try going to the internal drive instead first, you should get a decent amount of tracks to that. How much ram do you have? It can contribute.
Just a thought, but I'd heard that DP OSX wasn't the fastest / best written program on the block so can you try a different program? I get better response than from the internal drive. I've got a Gig of Ram. DP's the only one that I want to use, I'm just looking to optimize it as much as possible : ) Thanks, Vincent
