Holy cow, Alex, you just knocked over the apple cart! Now I’ve got to think about this. Hacking scares me but I’ve read where it is a simple hack. I know just enough about the inside of computers to get myself in trouble. I like your suggestions and will take a look at what is available. Thank you, Ted.

Todd, I went to both links but the RAID-0 question is still unanswered, Does a RAID-0 system require a total of 3 hard drives in which one would be for Windows 7 as a system drive and the other two would make up the RAID-0?
The other link with the calculator does not show the format that I will be editing in which is AVCHD. My camera is the Sony HDR-AX2000 and the reason I am upgrading to CS5 and a new computer is to be able to edit that format. I am using CS3 now.

Thanks again for your helpful advice. I’ll check out the two links. And I definately use at least three layers on most projects, some sequences have several more so speed is a factor.
I took my list to a computer shop to see about him building it for me. He suggested a RAID-0 but he also said to put Windows on it instead of on a separate system hard drive. I have always been told to keep the system drive separate from the video files.
What about that? I am a little confused with his suggestion.

You know, I am really having trouble deciding on whether or not to include a raid system. I know little to nothing about them even after doing some reading. I was thinking about maybe a RAID 0 using two 1TB internal hard drives but not sure what the advantage is.

Thanks for the reply and advise because I was thinking about going with the 850 anyway. I found a full size case that I like:

I hope it will work.

What are you using to capture your clips into the computer?

Oh, basically, all you do is use the pen tool make a dot on the left of the screen where you want the line to start, then make another dot on the far right of the screen where you want to line to end. I don’t remember the import parts though. I need to watch the tutorial again.

Amanda, there are tutorials on what you want to do right here in Creative Cow, Tutorial Section. I just tried finding one that I have watched twice but now cannot seem to find it. The one I was looking for puts dashes on a map as you travel along. Dashes are easily lines if that is your choice. Sorry I can’t find it now but I’ll keep looking.
