Default RAM & Pro Tools

What I was referring to was a price perspective. A good spinner would be more economical than a laptop failure. I prefer to run the bread and butter sessions off a spinner because they’re cheaper to replace. So if it’s a big session with lots of edits coming from sd2 translations. I would go with a spinner because they’re cheaper to replace than having your laptop fail from running it internal. Nowadays laptops have a button sized hard drive soldered to the motherboard. If it fails you’re out of luck. Also, I was referring to stock drives.
I would also like to note, magnetism holds a stronger bond. While silicon is more frail and fragile and more bound to break.
Another thing that would allow silicone to fail is carbonization. Seldomly spoken of, but a can of soda can do away with most silicone.
