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

people seem to be missing the point a bit here!
i use an 80gb ice warrior with an 828 on my tibook, no problems. wink.gif
no fan on the ice warrior either.
but the point is...
apart from the bus issue, it dosen't really matter who the vendor is, what's much more important is the drive inside the box. unsure.gif
i paid a little extra to have a seagate barracuda inside the ice.
since using g4 technology, i've already had a couple of ide drives die on me(they're just not as reliable as scsi drives), in my experience, barracudas are the most reliable drives on the market. cool.gif
all video and audio pros use them.
so what's inside the glyph?
what's inside the lacie?
probably a cheap western digital or maxtor, be careful. wink.gif
