| Recording Audio. Internal or external? I have a Dual 2.5gig G5. I have read that internal SATA drives are faster for recording than Firewire drives. I need a new recording drive. Should I go internal or external? Does anyone have an internal drive they record to? Or is everyone recording on an external?

| I record to internal drives if there is an internal drive to record to. It is faster, you won't regret it.

| Gear interested | sata for the speed and reliability if you have an extra slot you could get an esata card but then you would need a good and stable sata external with esata connections

| I have 2 bays. One is being used by the system drive and the other is empty. So I would just stay internal. When you say slot you are referring to a pci slot, right?
