WD SATA?

Western Digitals entry into the serial ata drive market looks interesting to say the least. "The first Raptor Series drive will be available in a 36 GB capacity, with a 5.2 MS average seek time, 10,000-RPM rotation speed and a whopping 1.2 million hours MTBF. Western Digital will offer a five-year warranty on these Enterprise-class hard drives."

Converting Files

I originally recorded my tracks at 24/96 in Nuendo and now due to system limitations I want to convert the tracks down to either 24/48 or 24/44. Basically, the higher format is wiping out my CPU once I start editing and using plugins. I converted one song down to 24/44 and gained a lot of system headroom and there didn’t appear to be any problems.
