				I've heard it's good to make a seperate hard drive or use a divider or something for all your music apps. because it frees up memory and makes your computer go faster.  wheeee!  How do you do this?  I'm pretty new to mac's and maybe a little ignorant about computers in general.  Thanks in advance.

				Depending on how serious you want to get about this, for the ultimate separate hard disk system you should get something like the Glyph Companion FireWire drive. Optimised for audio work, spindle rate 7,200 rpm. Very quiet, very reliable, very fast. 80Gb. Around £450. Full duplex - ie it can record and play back at the same time, which most hard drives cannot do, hence the hiccups and glitches that occasionally occur. Just buying a LaCie or SmartDisk desktop hard drive is NOT the same.
