Hi, happy Daylight Saving Time to everyone{i'm glad my Mac automatically
changed the time for me, thanks steve},
I'm down to my last 200 megs of memory on my 8600/250{processor upgraded
to a G4 450} and need to upgrade to a larger hard drive, the native one
is 4 gb. teeny-tiny. Should i...
Option A. Put in a FireWire PCI adapter card, and an external
firewire drive.
Option B. Put in an internal SCSI HD.
Which one would be be the faster and/or more reliable option? Am i maxed
out at a certain bus speed no matter what i get? how can i make sure i
am purchasing a native firewire drive? should i even concern myself with
firewire being native on the drive? what does native mean?
mmm... rubbing chin and noggin'...
tia.
