Greetings from Copenhagen! I'm about to buy a Tibook 800 and a MOTU 828. 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. Check out my songs at: http://www.koncertnet.dk/cgi-bin/db/db.cgi...target=bigframeChoose "hoj" for high bandwith connect and "lav" for low bandwith connect.

The pros in question are a bit wary on that… the issue as far as they know has not been addressed, because the firewire standard is asynchronous in essence. Ever wonderd why MOTU made a firewire system not firewire compatible (2408 family) but to propose sample level accuracy  The last post on that said that on a normal project it shouldn't be a problem, as the bandwith is laaarge. But on very big p^rojects it can be an issue. At the time Digi is counselling implicitly to work in SCSI and back up in firewire (a guy in the french part found the between the lines from Digi) But, if it sounds right… you know the ad!
