Anyone have a favorite Video editing HD for not too terribly much money? Just looking for something faster than my TiBook HD. Thanks for the help.
HD assumming you mean hard drive and not high def. if doing on TiBook than get an external Firewire by Lacie with 7200RPM drive. FW400 for you otherwise FW800 for those capable. Best to use internal drives like SATA by Hitachi (160GB/250GB).
Check pricegrabber for cheapest price and LaCie is probably the best bet on FW drives.
yes, I ment hard drive and thanks for your suggestion. I was looking at some lacie's and liked them but I just wanted to hear what some people had to say.
I used a WD 80GB and a PYro FW case from compusa. When I bought them it was 300. for that price you could get like a 200 GB HD and a FW2 case. pricewatch is your friend.
well, its not cheap, but i have a 320GB lacie (fw400).. i had to edit a 2.5 hour video... it works well with final cut, but like i said, its expensive...
