Default Re: SCSI or Firewire

In making the jump from PT v5.3 to v6.7, OS 9.2 to 10.3.x, G4 to G5...
I have decided to abandon my many SCSI drives in favor of FireWire. The decision is based on "bang for buck", ease of use, and that my old SCSI card would need to be replaced with a newer compatible one. Just not worth it.

So the question regarding multiple FireWire drives:
If you need 2 or more drives to accomodate a large number of tracks, is it okay for the drives to be on one single chain? My plan is to run audio off the 800 FireWire port (2 or more drives as needed) and Quicktime off the 400 FireWire port. Is this real-world practical? Georgia?

Thanks - Mark
