EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

So I'm imagining that many of us are dealing with this issue of how to 
set up our EXS system for maximum power and efficiency, with the goal 
of making music with the new generation of orchestral giga libraries.  
The folks using Gigastudio are way ahead of us in this regard, being 
that there is a ton of information and resources out there for getting 
the most out of your GigaDAW.  It would be great to hear from people 
who have figured out how to get the most from their EXS/Logic setup!

My current setup is a G4 dual 450 with a 2nd internal IBM ATA 80gb 7200 
rpm drive, and multiple 120gb external firewire drives.  Before Logic 5 
I was keeping all of my samples/programs on an internal drive, but 
since upgrading the software, I've had to go to at least one dedicated 
external 120gb firewire drive to hold the massive amount of orchestral 
samples I'm hoping to use.  I have not really tested this setup out 
much, so I'm expecting to run in to problems, of course...

I noticed that Glyph sells some sort of audio-optimized, rack-mountable 
array build around multiple hot-swappable hard disks.  I wonder if 
that's a wise investment to make, or can a person assemble something 
like that themselves?

Let's keep this thread going!
