Howdy Folks,
I'm looking to buy an external FW800 drive for my Protools 7/G5/dual2.5/10.3/4gRam
My budget is around 200-250.
Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance,
Chocolate

Well, I use NOTHING but Maxtor drives with the 16MB Cache (NOT the older ones) after YEARS of suffering through TERRIBLE LaCie crap and multiple failures. I only have ONE Lacie drive that still works out of 6 that were in my studio. And these did NOT die of "old age"...many were within the first year of use. And Lacie was of NO help whatsoever...
I have 10 Maxtor drives now, and they work perfectly (the newer lines, anyway...look for those with at least a 16MB Cache)...
