Wich RAM and drive should i choose ?

2004-08-27 by painrusse

Hi 

we are about to receive our brand new G5 dual 2.5 (yes !) and we have to 
make some decision about RAM and hard drive.

RAM:

We can choose between Kingston value (KVR) and Kingston branded (KTA).
Branded is pricier. Is it worth the money ?

Btw, the mac comes with 512Mb, we are puting 2 extra gig (4 x 512 Mb) . Is 
that enough for Logic and exs running vienna library ? 

DRIVE: 

We are looking for an internal SATA very fast drive of at least 200 gig for EXS 
playback only; what is our best bet  if we need a LOT of voices for streaming?
10k rpm drive worth considering ? What about internal RAID ?

Thanks in advance


Louis
