Default Re: Audio session hard drive size?

My comment about two drives did not necessarily apply to pro Tools LE. That reference was to HD3 sessions we record in the MTV Digital Audio truck. These sessions are regularly 64+ audio tracks at 24/48 and we've found one just drive cannot handle recording that much data by itself. I was just pointing out how much hard drive space a Pro Tools session could use. A four hour session at those track counts and sample rates is in the hundreds of gigs. I never even get close to those numbers on my LE system, but I'm used to thinking in the 125/250 GB range. Anything smaller seems odd to me. I'm sorry if someone misunderstood my response. On my personal LE system I put the session folder and wave files on the 125Gb firewire drive. Plugins and Pro Tools Operational files are on the system drive, but that's just me. I'll go away now and keep quiet.
