It is time to get a jumbo HD and I need help choosing between ATA and Firewire. I have installed a Sonnet Trio card and should now be able to use either of those formats. My concern is that I have only SCSI experience and since ATA is so Windoze oriented do I need to worry about formatting or are the HD's platform independant? Same question for Firewire or 1394 drives. If ebay or whoever, doesn't say it works in a Mac, can I expect it to work in mine?
