[quote=3d]You have DOZENS of FW based harddrives? DOZENS?? Yikes. I have 1 external for backups.

Yep. I haven't counted them lately, but I'd bet it's close to 30 that I'm responsible for.
A previous client of mine (author and documentary maker) had a dozen FW drives hanging off of her Mac, all with active Final Cut Pro files; as she filled up her most-recently purchased drive, she would simply send her assistant out to purchase another and add it to the end of the daisy chain. I tried more than once to get her to move to a high-capacity RAID solution, but she wouldn't have it, as the FW daisy chain "just worked."
Would this client seriously consider working in Final Cut Pro on a 13" MacBook if it had FireWire? A 13" laptop is TINY.
