Hi all
I just have a simple question...how should I set my system up?
I have:
Mac G5 Dual 2Ghz Digi002 Internal 160Gig HD (with Tiger on it) Internal 160Gig HD (spare) External FW HD (Currently my Audio Drive)
I get Drive too slow errors and I still get CPU errors which I hate and was the reason for upgrading to the G5.
What is the best setup? The G5 has 2 Firewire posts, 1x 400 Mbit/s and 1x 800 Mbit/s ( I know you guys know this ).
The Digi002 has 2x Firewire 400Mbit/s Ports.
I can have my audio drive as the Internal main drive, internal secondry drive or external Firewire drive 400Mbit/s or 800Mbit/s.
I also have a 6 pin to 9 pin firewire cable.
Any ideas?
Is it better to run the 002 on the 800Mbit/s port or the Audio Drive? what need to work faster?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Cheers Cybercampbell
