Pro Tools on MAC - Not a playback volume

Another pro tools m-powered question. I have a MacBook with Pro Tools installed on it. But if i want to start a new project it says that my HD is not a valid playback or record volume. I checked Digidesign website and my HD was formated the way it should be Extended (Journaled). It will not allow me to set my volume on Record or Playback in the Workspace menu either.

Mac upgrades?

Hey everyone
I am also quite a newb to recording, got some basic equipment and I'm not sure whether or not upgrades are required/possible. I have last year's Mac book, Apogeeinterface/logic pro. The thing is the Apogee/Duet interface only allows to inputs at one time, and Im looking to start recording some higher quality drums/multiple instruments at once.

Mac recommended specifications

Looking to buy a second hand Powermac G5 because my current system (a pc) is dying of age. I don't need to have the fastest of the fastest, and I don't have the budget for it, so I'm not really into the latest line of Mac Pro's. However, I want a solid system on which I can run PT 7.x with a Digi002 interface for a couple of years to come.
