Question about Hard Drive Size.

[dune5233]

Is there any such thing as a hard drive being too big for audio recording? Say if if you have a drive thats 120 gb/7200rpm, would that slow down your audio performance cause it takes your cpu to read the data off the drive longer?

It doesn't take your CPU longer, however yes seek times on large drives can be higher than smaller drives. I don't think it's a serious problem however, and any severe issues could be resolved by simply partitioning the drive well.
