I have nearly maxed out my internal hard drive on my mac book, so i'm looking for a new harddrive. Should I be woried aout getting one with raid built in suh as the lacie little bug disk or the maxtor one touch iii turbo raid? Or will just having 7200 rpm be okay? I have had disk errors in garageband and get the occasional 'here are to many tracks' warnings with the internal drive. Also, if i got a hub and linked up 2 hard drives would i then be able to use the software raid in osX? Thanks for your time cheers

When you say use an external drive for audio, do you just mean for the actual audio files or for the program as well?

Typically, you want to keep your main hard drive as an Applications/Program drive. On my external drive I keep all my "sounds" (I mean loops,recorded tracks) in one place to stream from & record to.
