I have an old grey G3,and want to set up an editing solution (DV300) and need to know what HD to get. I`m planning to start with a 9.1 gb U2Wlvd and expand to a raid solution later. Am I on the right sector?
If using SCSI then that sounds like a good idea.
You should also consider getting an 18Gb unit instead of the 9, then when you want to purchase a RAID solution you could just purchase 2 more.
9Gb drives are starting to get a bit risky because the next generation 36 / 50 Units are appearing, and once these are fully launched the 9Gb units will be discontinued.
That's my opinion anyway.. Hope it's of some use.

Thanks, man.
Seems like I was part right,anyway.
Are there any brands that you would reccomend?
There's not much bad stuff around at the moment, but look at IBM. They have a couple of new drives out that are Very fast.
