Default Re: Do you have to have a 7200 rpm hard drive to run Pro Tools 10?

But from PT10 onwards, the disk cache helps loads.

I'm running large sessions in surround, audio. and HD video off a gigabit connected Synology NAS RAID drive. One initial "comment" from PT in workspace but no bandwidth issues.

I do have 16GB of RAM though, 8GB of which I give to PT.

I did initially try an iSCSI setup but it brought more limitations than benefits.
