Deej, Do I have to do my kb/s/track math for you again to explain what kind
of througput you need for audio recording? ATA 130 is _way_ more than sufficient
for even massive projects. Also, the on board SATA controllers tend to conflict
less with everything (in my experience) than do the other controllers. So,
get a 750GB SATA drive from newegg and track to that. Trust me, when you're
running a 60 track project it'll spend more time chatting up the southbridge
and making South Park jokes than working.

This forum is much more helpful than the Cubase forum as far as actual
constructive assistance goes. I only go to the Cubase forums if I hit a snag
and need some feedback on whether it is a *feature* or not. Saves me time in
a (so far) unfamiliar world. As luck would have it, in this particular
situation, the *issues* I was having with my RAID controller are similar to
what some on cubase .net are having with the program itself........but their
issues are probably hardware related too. My rig just has so many variables
that when I have a problem, I tend to want to throw a pretty wide net to see
what kind of flotsam I can scour from top to bottom.
Actually, one of the moderators there named Tank, has PM'ed me with helpful
info, though I seldom see any of them help anyone on the forum itself. Can't
blame them though. There are some major wankers over there.
