I'm also thinking about getting a firewire harddrive, but can you record directly onto this or should it only be used for backup purposes? Also, can any of you recommend a harddrive? I know of the M-Project from Glyph, but are there others? Thanks, Schack PS.

I was told that problem was mainly only apparent on the older firewire equipped computers such as my G3 blue and white but has since been solved with newer firewire technology. Anyway, I use Glyph 30Gig drive and love it. Had for over a year and never had one bit of trouble with it and recordings sound fine when used in combination with my Digi001 and ProTools LE. Plus its rack-mountable which is nice and I have it mounted in a rack under my workstation along with my Digi001. -------------------- ---------------------------------------- <span style='font-size:18pt;line-height:100%'>Synthetic Tone</span> Click above for totally original electronic music, art, & photos.
