[QUOTE="Jeff Babcock, post: 22576, member: 46"] Re: Digidesign SC48 I suspect one concern is that the OS is Windows XP Embedded. XP requires some significant "workarounds" to be fully optimized for SSD drive usage. There is potential for a number of issues including pauses due to delayed writes and many more. Here's an example of workarounds/tweaks: [url]http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?43460-Making-XP-pro-SSD-friendly[/url] Also, FWIW my SC48 had some rough journeys including being shipped a few times on a pallet for cross-rentals, lots of trailer and box truck rides, and more. Never had an issue, and I was no more cautious with it than with any other console. Sheldon @ Avid is very tuned into user needs and they have a terrific support dept for the venue line - I'm sure if the HD was a big widespread issue they'd do something. [/QUOTE]
