Yes. Honestly, I've got a Sata drive in my Daw, but I haven't connected it up to use as part of my audio storage yet. I was just so happy to have the machine working, I didn't really want to fiddle with configuring it any more. I'm about to revisit it though. By the way for any who hasn't been to musicxp.net yet should really take a look at it. I keep my Daw off of the net so I was able to use a lot of the suggestions given and it runs pretty fast and clean. -----Original Message----- From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Gordon Kent Sent: Monday, April 03, 2006 6:37 PM To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Jaws Craching! That is very interesting and very enlightening. I just hope I don't get into too many situations where I have to go that deep, uggggh.
