What shall I do with my set up and new HD?

I just bought a new 250GB USB 7200RPM HD....finally!
I have often gotten the "HD too slow" error with Logic Express.
Should I just move the entire OS and all Logic Express software and components over to the new drive?
Use Logic Express on the new HD only?
Is there some sort of Raid set up I can use?
I am also a little concerned about the USB bus since I will have my Tascam US428, keyboard, etc. on the same.
What is the best way to handle this....please tell me your experiences and resolutions.
I am running L.E. 7.1.1
Thanks

Hi Madison,
OOPS... you might have searched the forum before buying that USB hard drive.
Most audio recording is done best witha FireWire hard drive.This is because the USB protocol is not as fast as the FireWire protocol,in the real world.
And it looks as if you also have already too much going on in the USB department anyways.
Please do NOT move your applications and system to the USB drive,that would not work at all.
The best would be to get a FireWire drive.Or hopefully you bought a hard drive that has both FireWire and USB connections.
Cheers,

    My mackbook pro suddenly freezed and when I swiched off and on again, a grey screen appeared with an apple logo then a loading circle underneath, and after a few hours, a blue screen appeared. What shall I do with this?

    What operating system version, and do you have any backups of your data off the machine? TimeMachine? Option Key bootable clones? Storage? DVD's?
    A reinstall of the operating system may be in order as a last resort, so if any of these steps on these links get you into the machine, make sure to backup your personal data (Music, Pictures, Documents, Movies) off the machine to a non-encrypted  powered external drive regular storage drive (not TimeMachine as it might be corrupted too) and disconnect as soon as possible.
    Good Luck and report back all what you tried.
    Also report what change occured before this tragedy happened, was there a  Software Update? A EFI firmware update? Etc.

  • I just created my 1st travel expense report - Now what shall I do with the original paper?

    Hello,
    I just created my first travel expense report. The original paperwork (e.g. from hotels) had been photographed and assigned as expenses. One question: What shall I do with the original papers? Can I throw them away (which I hope). Or is there any legal / tax-related duty to keep them (which would be stupid).

  • I `ll get a new pc...what shall I do with my licenc-number of PS CS4?

    I`ll get a new pc.....what shall I do with my licenc -number of CS 4? Can I transfer it easely?

    Based on the title, I would have Moved the post to the Photoshop>General Discussions Forum, but would also have taken credit (or blame) for the Move. As the OP has gotten the answer, I am not sure if a Move now is warranted, but maybe so? If Pat saw it elsewhere, not sure how it did get here???
    Now, some posts do defy logical moving, as it's impossible to tell which Adobe product is involved. Also, some of the Adobe Forums can be very confusing - I always struggle with which Acrobat sub-forum would be best. I am sure that I guess wrong quite often, and only hope that one of the Acrobat MOD's will correct my error. At least they know who to blame! Also, I usually PM the OP, to let them know where their post went, and why.

  • What is going on with CBS Channel 2 and 502

    What is going on with CBS Channel 2 and 502?   The audio went out mid-day.  When it came back the picture is now a postage stamp?  I called and was told Verizon is having trouble with CBS.  It is now  9 hours latter and the picture is still a postge stamp? (5.1 AC3 digital )
    Any fix soon? 
    Thanks

    You didn't identify where you are.  Channel 502 (WCBS in NY) was fine when I checked in VHO 5.
    Also did you try a STB In-home-agent fix, set top box auto correct?

  • What is the Difference with FMLE 3.1 and 3.2? having problems with my stream

    What is the difference with FMLE 3.1 and 3.2?
    I am having major problems with my live stream, i am currently using FMLE 3.1 and using a Imac computer.
    The stream seems to be delayed by 20mins and keeps on crashing
    I have a 2MB upload speed and frame rate 25.00 and bit rate 800 kbps fromat VP6
    Can anyone help me with getting the settings right and what is the best computer to use to allow FMLE not to crash and stream to run smooth?
    Please Help
    Thank you

    Hello!
    I would be interested in helping you with your question. You are going to need to provide a little more information about your current configuration in order for me to better understand your issue. Until then, I'll do my best to answer your quesitons.
    There are subtle changes from 3.1 to 3.2. Both are stable releases. With your setup, you should be using 3.2.
    Issues with FMLE typically deal with your capture card. The issues you are having sound like a streaming server issue. Stream delayed 20min? This isn't typical behavior. What streaming media server are you usign? FMS or Wowza? Define 'crashing'. Anything in the output log in FMLE or is your server 'crashing'.
    Thank you,

  • Problems with ipod battery life AND new software

    First of all, I'm not 100% sure if my ipod is fifth generation... it's a 30 GB and I've had it since December 2006. This just seemed to be the only category it fit into.
    But here we go: I have two major problems with my ipod that have arisen in only a period of a couple days.
    First of all, my battery life suddenly got REALLY REALLY bad. I know there are already a bunch of threads with people complaining about their battery life, but mine is much worse. The battery life did progressively get a little worse over the past few weeks, but it was nothing major. But I turned my ipod on the other day, RIGHT after fully charging it, mind you, and within 2-3 minutes the battery was halfway discharged and in about 5 minutes it was almost dead.
    And a couple of times, I had my ipod plugged into my iBook to charge, and the iBook went into sleep mode because I left it alone for a while. But after a couple hours I came back and the battery level was LOWER than when I plugged it in!!!! What's going on with this thing?
    And then to make matters worse, I finally broke down and downloaded the new ipod software the other day (sorry I can't remember the version, but it's the most recent). Everything seemed OK until I turned on my ipod the next day. With the old software, when I would select "Music>" and then "Artists>" it would go to the list of artists like it's SUPPOSED to.
    But now, when I select "Artists>" it then goes to a list entitled "Artists" and my ONLY option is "All>". If I click "All>" then it takes me to a second list called "All Albums" and my only option again is "All>". When I click it again, it takes me to a list called "All Songs" with NOTHING in it. At first, I was afraid the update had deleted all the music off my ipod, but I plugged it back into my computer and according to iTunes, everything was still there as if nothing had happened.
    Is there anything I can do to remedy either of these problems? I am so frustrated with this thing, considering both of these things happened rather suddenly and the fact that my ipod is not even a year old and it's not like I've been abusing it or anything.

    I've had both exact problems (listed below) within days of each other just like you. This is extremely effing frustrating and it appears Apple isn't doing sh|t about it.
    Problem 1: Battery constantly discharges even when ipod is turned off.
    Problem 2: After upgrading firmware to 1.2.2, all my content (songs, podcasts, everything) was gone.
    I'm glad to say I was able to fix problem 2 after reading about reverting back to version 1.2.1. There are instructions in this forum on how to do it. If you are like me, you'll have to download the 1.2.1 files from Apple's website because they were no longer on my computer.
    This dieing/dead battery problem is a major effing pain in the a$$. Like you say, the effing thing is dead after minutes. The only way it can be used for any length of time is to leave it plugged in to a charger.
    No one seems to have a solution which is even more upsetting than the problem. Hey Apple, I want my money back!

  • I have a G4 with OSX 10.2 and my printer died.  New printers only seem to work with 10.4.11 and newer - can I upgrade my G4 enough to use a new printer?

    I have a G4 with OSX 10.2 and my printer died.  New printers only seem to work with 10.4.11 and newer - can I upgrade my G4 enough to use a new printer?

    Aha!
    Well in outer Mongolia ASAP means something totally different and involves weaving tent fabric from camel hair so that has taken me a bit of time....  However if you have the patience of a saint and the compassion of Mother Theresas' more helpful sister then....
    So it would appear I have the following supersonics:
    OSX 10.2.1
    60 Gb HD
    G4 dual processor 1GHz
    Now the critical issue here is that I get the computer up to speed enough to be compatible with a modern photo printer - which I think needs to be 10.4.11 or even 10.5
    Any assistance would be most gratefully and humbly recieved.

  • What to do with between Set up as new iphone or Restore from this back up? i just want to transfer all my purchased apps and contacts to my new iphone?  don't want to screw thing up. thanks

    I plugged in the iphone 5 to PC via itunes what should i do  between Set up as new iphone or Restore from this back up? i just want to transfer all my purchased apps and contacts to my new iphone?  don't want to screw thing up. Please help..... thanks

    Is this a new iPhone?
    If so, when connecting a new iPhone to iTunes for the first time that has been used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the new iPhone, or set up the new iPhone as a new iPhone.
    If you don't want to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device, select set up as a new iPhone. No existing data or settings will be erased or changed when selecting as a new iPhone. Not that difficult or difficult at all.

  • HT202213 what steps do I need to set up a new pc with my existing itunes library?

    I just purchased a new PC.  I have itunes set up on my old PC.  How can I bring iTunes into my new pc?  Do I need to start with installing/downloading iTunes and then transfer over the libraries?

    Additionally...
    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.
