I am pretty much just curious of what works well and what doesn't work well. I really want a Glyph 80 GB Tabletop Firewire drive, but the Cost VS Capacity VS Stability is what is killing me. I have heard that using hard drives that aren't meant for audio recording can burn up by being too overwhelmed with too much data too quickly and that they are unreliable. I have heard anything by Glyph is like a tank and works extremely well. So I was curious if there was other solutions out there that offer more Capacity, are cheap pricewise, and are actually stable. Any help would rock! Thanks!

I want to add a question or 2 here,.,

1, How much noise does your external hardrive make ( if you have, or have used more than one, which makes more noise)?

2, If you had it all to do over again, would you stick with the external, or go internal? I understand internals are quieter and preform as well (if not better than) external.
