I am running a 1.25 Ghz G4 power book with 1.25 gig of ram. I am running Logic 6.4.1 and I constantly get the "disc too slow" error message if I use more than 5 tracks of audio and an audio instrument. I have tried buying more ram, freeing up space on my hard drive, freezing files, changing buffer size.. everythng! From what I can gather from other fourums it's a pretty common problem and it does not seem to be a hardware problem it seems to be a data transfer problem with Logic. My question is what can I do about it ????
Is it possible to upgrade my Logic 6.4.1 to a more later version of 6 (i dont want to buy logic 7) and will this even help matters?

Max up your ram anyway, 1,25 GB is not fun enough anyway.

Now, if you use the system drive, it's common, you ask too much from a drive which has other duties (system, apps, VM swap file). Start maybe with maxing out the RAM, as the more you have the less you rely on the VM (you'll have still need of a swap file, but a small one, it'll take days of continuous use to make it to 512 MB). It may do the trick for your case, but else:

Simple solution is the external firewire hard drive…

I'd recommend the external Firwire drive in addition to all the RAM you can afford. Pacific Pro Audio sells high quality Seagate Oxford 911 drives from 40 gigs on up & they are quite reasonable in price in addition to the fact that for a while there they were one of the only brands endorsed by Digidesign for use in their Pro Tools systems. I think the link is pacificproaudio or they can be googled.
