Hi, I need to archive client data and would very much like to work directly from the client HD. I've tried USB and neither version of the protocol is fast enough. Is firewire 800 fast enough to run a 16 track Ardour recording session? If yes, then I don't need to move data from an archive drive to a working drive. That would be a big bonus. If anyone could recommend specific controlers that would be excellent. Someone gave me an older OSCI firewire controler but I've never been able to get it working. I'm thinking about using drive trays that can be inserted into cases. Some of the cases have multitple bays where one could be a HD and the other a CD-R or whatever. I've already got close to a dozen 80gig IDE drives that belong to clients so the tray and case seems like a good way to manage my past. Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated. ron __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Small Business - Try our new resources site! http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/resources/
