SCSI issue: this type of hard drives are a much better technology for audio jobs, but for musicians is really not necessary. When you run a studio you can't afford to loose some clients takes, and there is were SCSI get's in; is a more reliable storage medium. if you have a 7200 IDE from a good manufacturer (IBM, Seagate, etc.) you will have a good drive fast enogh for several simulataneos track recording. one thing to have in mind is to provide a perfect comunication between the motherboard and the disk check for recomended manufacturers between them.
but... i think the best you could do is to choose a sound card that really covers your needs and ask the manufacturer for a good PC setup for it. i did that and i am very happy. n.sekt ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cory Secrist" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Drum & Bass Arena Discussion List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, December 08, 2001 5:25 PM Subject: [dnb-prod] Computer Check: Need your advice > What's up all, > > OK, I've been in the market for a new PC for a while > and I've been paying close attention to all the > computer related e-mails I get from this list.
