Firewire daisy chain
Does daisy chaining reduce (at all or significantly) effectiveness? Specifically, can I daisy chain 5 or 6 drives together successfully when using them in FCP7?

“Prores? Nope. Won’t happen with firewire and ONE connection,”
well it really does depend on the type of media
i tend to work with ProResLT, 1080 or 720p
FW800 handles that with no problems at allthe last big documentary i worked on we had 5 FW drives daisy chained
media was HDV, so relatively low throughput.i havent noticed more drives making for significantly slower drives.
