(first off I know there is a similar post right below me)
anyways. I have a powerbook G4 and I'm gonna be running pro tools LE with an M-Box and maybe logic. my school recomends that I get an external firewire hard drive with 7200 RPM"s as the minimum. I also know that pro tools is pick about what hard drives you use. my question is. either what external hard drive is good for my set up. and 2. is it possible for me to take a internal HDD put it in a case and and use it. (I know it's possible but would it work for Pro Tools) and finally if I was to go there external/internal route. How to I hook up the drive to my comp??? does the case come with a firewire output or something?? |

QUOTE (jamester @ Jan 25 2004, 17:40) slowintrepid - What school do you go to? Berklee? I am a Berklee grad; I just heard about them requiring all students to get a laptop. What's up with that? Does it have to be a Mac? JAMES yeah I'm going to berklee. Basically Berklee hooked up all the students with a nasty Laptop package for $2500 its like the best 15" powerbook. and M-Box a Oxygen 8 reason ms office losts of NI suites toast and jam bias peak le. I dunno but it's like 7000 dollars worth of stuff. the cost is included in our tuition so financial aide pays for it. they're trying to work the powerbooks into everyclass. (like you will email your teacher a score from finale) if your an allum you entiled to buy the same package at the same price. if I were you I would check out the website and maybe call the school. |
