Good day, all.

To make a long story short, I used to run Cubase on an 8500 (upgraded to Mac G3, 333). My drives died.. etc..They were old SCSI'sand I lost everything. It happens. Anyway - I switched to PC b/c of price and other issues. That was a bad idea...

I would like to set up another Mac recording studio but one issue seems to come up all the time.

What storage device to use? I've read reports regarding IDE performance problems. I've read reports on the benefits of SCSI devices and using IDE and SCSI together. I have not been able to find any information on the benefits or issues regarding Firewire drives and audio recording. Does anyone have any info?

Here is my plan thus far:
Intention: Music Studio - Lots of auido recording - At least cd quality
- MAC G4 (1Ghz) -- Perhaps dual processor
- At least 512 Mb of ram
- Audio card or the Motu 828
- Cubase and NUENDO
- USB 8 channel midi time piece
- Digital Mixer or Mixer interface to control Cubase and Nuendo
- Dual Flat Screen Monitors
- Drives???????? <-- Firewire? SCsi? IDE??? Combination?

Any help or advice would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Hello !

SCSI Ultra-Wide is O.K ( card + internal HD )

 but if you plan to add video to your music a 80 GB ' Firewire ' is better .
