Is there a difference, performance-wise, between your standard internal serial ATA drive and your standard external Firewire drive? I'm assuming similar hard drive specs - I'm more concerned with how the bus effects performance. For example how well would a firewire drive handle a large sample library (5+ GB, at once), reading direct from disk, where it would have to seek out large amounts of info at once?
