Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

There are a lot of options - external firewire or usb2 drives or internal 
SATA drives. You can often find them on sale. The external drives have the 
benefit of being able to store them somewhere else. For example, if you record at 
home, and then there were to be a fire, you wouldn't lose your stuff backed up 
to a drive stored somewhere else.

I never use Logic's project manager but maybe I should. I just keep 
everything well organized by keeping the logic files in one folder and the audio in a 
folder on a separate internal drive. Any samples I am using, I copy them to the 
audio folder too so I can mess with them and not worry, plus they are 
together with recorded audio. You can then sort the folders by modification date and 
get the most recent stuff to back up to your external drives. It works for me.
