Peter: You might think about the Mac Mini Server which comes with two hard drives. I use one and also use bootcamp.

It is really going to depend on your needs. Will you be recording personal projects, will you be attempting to use it as a foundation for a recording studio? In short, with my small knowledge I think it will be very ataquit for personal needs. I have a friend who I shared my studio with and he used a Mac mini with less power than the one you listed and he was able to satisfy a small client bass without any complaints about his Mini's capabilities. I use an Imac and I think it is doing ok myself.

Hi All, I'm a Mac virgin, and am about to get my first one with a view to learning ProTools, but I also want to use Boot Camp so that I can run Sonar under Windows to keep working on existing projects. I've been looking at the whole Mac range and should really appreciate some advice from those with knowledge and experience of the Mac world. I'm leaning towards a Mac Mini, with a 2.6 GHZ quad core processor, 16 GB RAM, and 1 TB fusion drive. Do you think this will be adequate, or should I be looking at the Mac Pro with its rather overwhelming customisation choices? Or are there other considerations which would make you choose MacBook Pro or iMac? Any comments or thoughts very much appreciated.
