The Logic Off Topic list

Hi again,

If anyone can help me with a few Hard Drive Q's....

Current set up:

PB G4 1g mhz/1 g ram
Internal HD 20g
Running OSX & Logic pro7


Older rig- G400 512ram 
Internal Drive (measly) 10 gig 
Running OS9.2 and Logic 5.5
2nd Internal Drive 80 gigs 4x20g partitions

1st partition has samples
2nd has Logic & Audio files
3rd partition has itunes library
4th has OSX panther with Logic pro 7 (this was an experiment to 
see how OSX & Pro 7 stood up on this old mac...well...it works)

Here's what I think I need...

An external Drive for storage of samples (for EXS24)
I can access from the PB & the G4 (I know I'll update it one day)

I want to just use OS9 on the G4 for Internet... and mainly run 
OSX on the 80 gig internal hard Drive.

Now i get a bit confused as to how i should reformat or what the 
best way is to configure this set up on the 80gig drive

I read about having 1/3 for the system... OSX, say 25 gigs.. 
leaving 55 gigs for Logic Files & Audio files?

Would it be better to put samples & the logic files on the same 
external? so keeping everthing up to date on the one drive...

What do you do with your Logic & Audio files? Keep them on the 
internal drive or have 2 external drives? 1 for files , 1 for samples.

I don't think my PB has big enough internal drive for loads of 
Logic and Audio files.... I will add... my work flow doesn't require 
much streaming of samples as I mix and bounce to audio as I 
work by building up tracks gradualy. 

A friend mentioned my G400 Tower might make an interesting 
anchor for a tinny.... (a joke for the Ozzies in here)
