David Nahmani Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 You could get this drive: http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=101543 And a firewire enclosure, and you would be set. Or better yet, if you're willing to go this way, a SATA 3.0 PCI controller and a SATA enclosure! Or are you looking for a drive that's pre-built?

matwell Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I really like OWC drives. http://www.otherworldcomputing.com/ They make some very nice external FireWire drives. I've done huge 100+ track projects in Pro Tools with them. They're practically bullet-proof. Prices are great, performance is great. (and no, I don't work for them but with all the referrals to my colleagues, I should be getting a commission!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estorian Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I work with a Lacie triple interface (usb, firewire 400 and firewire 800) and it's wonderful, not expensive (not cheap) and very high quality hardware, so this is my option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kouly Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Also take a look at Transinternational. http://transintl.com/ They are a small outfit that has a very friendly staff that will not steer you wrong. I got my 120 GB firewire at a very good price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
