using a dual g5 w/ logic pro 7.1, i need to know the best allocation for disc performance. i have 2 internal hard drives (HD) and two external firewire (FW) drives. the the moment i have HD-1 for system oxs and all applications (incl logic), HD-2 for all audio files and one of the two firewire drives for my exs samples. is there a better set up i should use? i\u2019m reformatting my main hard drive (HD-1) and i want to know how i should allocate files for the best performance.
thanks in advance for the help!

I am only conjecturing, and I imagine someone like Nick could give a better answer, but I suppose it would be best to keep the system on one disk, samples on a firewire disk, and audio on the second hard disk. I was reading that the LaCie drives (which I own seveal of) are not as fast as some others by the way. You can buy firewire 800 enclosures and put existing drives in them - I ended up putting the second drive from my old G4 into a firewire 400 box and it works fine - plus has some cool neon lights that make the wait more enjoyable.
