hi, i'm about to order a dual g5 and i know you need a 2nd hard drive
to record the audio files for pro tools. will just getting a 2nd
internal hard drive that comes with g5 be alright (the stock one: 160GB
Serial ATA - 7200rpm), or are you supposed to get one of those hard
drives that connect via firewire, audiowire, etc? sorry if this is a
stupid question, i'm not the biggest hardware guru if you haven't
already noticed! also, will i need to buy partition software for this
or can that be done through formating?

thanks,
adam


Get a second internal hard drive. Then get a big ass external for backing up
the media on your second internal.
