Hey Folks,
i´ve got an question about HDD witz 5200 and 7200.
So the Problem is i will buy an macbookpro. 8 GB Ram and 3,06 GHZ. 500 GB HDD.
At the moment i am not sure what is the best solutio for me. It´s important for me, that i can do orchestration and compostions on the road.
So i have to buy an external haddisc drive for the soundlibaries. The Problem is that external haddisc drives via USB without external power online have 5200.
If you want 7200 you have to buy an HDD with external power supply. But on the road there is not always the chance to get external power. So everything sould be working with the mac power.
My question is, make it any sense that i buy an 5200 which get the power from the mac So i can compose everywhere i want or is that not so good cause the hdd is to slow for that?
Are there any expiriences with that ? Or do you have any advice for me?
Best wishes to all of you!
Chris
