What external Hard drive to Buy??
I'm a new digi002 user and am planing to record a festival my band will be playing at in acouple of weeks. My setup will consist of my G4 (dual 1.25 512mb ram), digi002, presonus digimax lt. My question is on drives' I have been using the internal hard-drive up to this point, but would like to pick up an external hard-drive(120gig,160gig). Any reccommendations on drives to buy or to avoid or what specs I should look for would be greatly appreciated. I also plan on increasing my RAM to at least 1gig. Again, any responses would be well received!! you have a great forum!

I've always had great success with Transintl's drives.

Ditto on LaCie D2 FW. Going on 2 years with it and zero problems to date. I'm ordering 2 more this week (sound library expanded!).

These are great, and much cheaper than most. They do have a fan though.

For a minute there, I thought this might be a ploy to flush out "Where"..... Gues not..... I also use the OWC drive, great product. Has one problem with the power supply going bad on me, and they replaced it incredibly fast, great technical support. Hope this helps, Dave
