    Macbook advice needed, not the "pro" version

    10k or 7200 for dedicated OS/DAW

    If you had a 10k rpm hard drive and another 7,200 rpm hard drive, would it make more sense to have the former being the software/os HD, and the latter being for audio, or the opposite ? Or would both situation have their advantages. I currently use an external hard drive (Maxtor onetouch 200gb)...
