[QUOTE="Simon Eves, post: 91092, member: 4463"] Re: MacBook Pro Processing Bandwidth Reality Check Not sure who "mackerr"'s question was aimed at. I'm only just putting the system together, so mostly I'm speculating just based on my experience as a software engineer... I concur with the fear that a slow hard drive might cause glitches if QLab decides it needs to go off and load a multi-megabyte audio file to play next while Reaper is recording 32 tracks. I will run a lot more tests, but in the meantime I decided to solve the slow drive problem by doing what I've been planning to do to that computer for a while now anyway, which is to replace the mechanical hard drive with a 240GB SSD, which I just ordered. I'll let you all know how I get on, if you're still interested... [/QUOTE]
