Default Re: best size for mac internal hard drive?

It'll be fine. You should partition for audio/video. I had heard that some 300G & 400G drives were a bit flaky (Western Digital SATA's), but this is only anicdotal. I popped in a second Seagate 250GB HDD SATA that has run perfectly & performs really well. When the 10,000 rpm drives get bigger I'll upgrade to one of those (for both system & media).
I've found Seagate's drives to be excellent overall. I have 2 in my G4, and I've never had problem with them, the 80 gig that came with the computer and a 160 gig for audio/video. I also have a 160 GB Western Digital, which has thus far been very good to me.

I also have a 300 GB Maxtor OneTouch II FireWire drive, and that plays nice with ProTools, as well.
