Taking the plunge… FCP studio, Tiger and a homemade RAID… Any advices
I’ve been perfectly happy with Panther and 4.5, but as I now have the option to upgrade… well I will. -;)
Some questionsIs it a good idea to keep a volume with Panther and 4.5 for older projects?
Should I go with QT on both setups?Any experiences with the High Point Rocket RAID 2220
I’ll put 6 400 gb SATA disks in a PC box (for power, fans and brackets) – happily saving some cash which gives me the opportutity to have a RAID.
My old ATA disks goes into an old G3 and another old PC for backup purposes.
I currently have 6 Gb RAM. Will that do for Motion on a first gen dual 2 Ghz? G5?
And what should I do next?

Im using a 1.4TB sata raid system from macgurus.com
Im using the Sonnet Tempo-8x external 8 port esata card.
I just finished an 1hr long segment for the Fine Living Network
and it worked fine.
I also, have a SCSI raid system from rourke data.
I found the SCSI raid to be more responsive. But 3 times the cost.
I had a couple of hiccups out-putting from the
Sata drives. It was droping frames at first. I
powered down and I out-put 3 43min versions
at 10 bit no problem.
Beaware, there’s allways something out-putting.Good Luck
