Imac 3.0 and Graid2 (2tb)
I am looking at purchasing the new IMac 3.0 and a Graid2 (2tb) external FW800 drive. What are your thoughts. I do mostly SD and a little HD work right now. I know that in a couple of years I will want to go full HD and the FW800 is a limitation, but the wife wants an Ipod Touch and they are offering a free Ipod touch with a new IMAC ;-)
I do multicam editing of live events with anywhere from 2 to 4 camera angles. 1) Do you see this as feasible on this system? 2) Is there a better external solution that will provide faster drive times? 3) Should I just wait for a macpro and upset the wife? Thanks for you input. Jonathan Schwartz CA Video Productions |

As Mike said, when you have the budget to go for an iMac 3.0 ghz, it would be wise to save up a bit more and go for a Mac Pro.
It's a better workhorse, has better components, is less prone to faults, more expandible and faster. It's the better investment in the long run. |
