I use Final Cut as my editing program and obviously I edit video. My problem is at the moment is more Hard Drives. I had 2 in my G5, but I had a wire issue with the bottom bay ( I dont want to mess with all that and create a disaster. So I am looking for some Hard Drive advice. (plus I was just at Mac World and so much to think about!) I only have the stock drive in bay one ( I will be swapping for a 1TB though), and I have 2 500gb externals (one for back up/time machine) and another for video files, but only at 7200 RPM's. I am looking for a good inclosure for a good price running at firewire speed, mainly the best for video editing. Or is there another way to go about. Its a late 2005 G5, any opinions would rock.
Thanks!
P.S
I wrote this on another board for another problem, I thought it might help you understand the bottom bay problem....Or why I am having problems.
have a 2005 G5 and my Bottom bay HD wires are busted. I need to obviously buy new ones but the problem is I can't figure out where the wires go, I can find the smaller wire, but not the bigger power wire (i think its the power). When I open up the G5 it looks like the big wire goes behind the board (and I really dont want to take the whole thing apart!). Does anyone have a picture explaining where all the wires go in a 2005 G5. I have goggled it, but just internal pics and simple explanations come up, I am looking for something more complicated so I know where the bottom bay wires go to.
Any help would be great! If anyone has switched out the wires before please let me know, cause this is nuts. They make everything else in the G5 easy to do but this. ( This all happened because I shipped it and the wires snapped on my bottom drive)
Thanks
