external firewire drives for audio?

[taylor deupree <taylor@xxxxxxx>]

hi list,

i figure someone on this list will be able to shed some light on this
for me (kim, maybe?)... anyway.. my internal drive on my new G4 is
slow (5400rpm) and giving me some audio recording problems... i need
to get another drive, asap... and someone suggested i look into an
external firewire drive.. saying the speeds and sustain rates for
audio surpass the best scsi drives...

is this true? does anyone have any opinions/information on using
firewire drives for audio recording?

thank you!..

cheers

taylor
