USB External Drive for Backup?
I tried searching for this, but to no avail.
Costco has this item available this month. Any comments on how it would do as a backup/'archive drive? Anyone familiar with the item? Is the USB 2 connection adequate, etc. Thanks **************** SimpleTech External 250GB Hard Drive USB 2.0/FireWire $149.99 After Rebate 7200 RPM 35MB/sec Data Transfer Rate *****************

Re: USB External Drive for Backup?
Well, most FireWire drives with the Oxford 911 chip will be fine to record right to in ProTools. Using a USB connect JUST for archiving, not recording, shouldn't cause a huge issue.
