I will soon take charge of a Mac G4 500 Dual(mmmmm......) and a digi 001. I intend to use this system solely for audio production. 2 questions: Do I need an external hard drive? If not immediately, when should I get one? Thanks DUC Josh

1. yes 2. right away

1. no 2. when you feel the need for it. With 24 tracks of 16 bits audio, I don't believe you do. David.

1) maybe 2) Do you mean a second hard drive dedicated to audio? (Could be internal too, right?) Don't worry about it at first, just get up and running then set up a bunch of tracks and plugins and see what your limits are. Then decide for yourself. Bob
