I'm aware of the other OWC offerings, like Thunderblade, etc, but I'm wondering if there are other options I should consider. Three of these are HDDs, so it seems that the best solution is probably an OWC Thunderbay 8-drive enclosure. I currently have six drives in a Hackintosh tower - system drive, bootable clone of the system drive, Time Machine drive, sound libraries drive, audio projects, and audio projects backup. general snappiness), no real world work, but nothing I did made me think there was any big advantage to running projects from the internal 's also possible there's something wonky with my setup that prevents me from reaping internal storage benefits, but everything seems smooth overall. I only did torture tests when I first got my MBP (dense MIDI note field redraws, audio renders etc.

I'm guessing the performance might vary greatly from project to project. I haven't tested extensively, but running projects from the internal integrated storage doesn't seem any different than running from an external SSD (Thunderbay 4 Mini) on a Tb4 bus on my MBP. I know the numbers don't agree, but that is not my experience so far. You also mention in that thread that projects on externals run slower. Am I taking that out of context? - there's a lot of info spread across a few threads at this point. 4&start=45In that thread you say keeping VIs on an external makes sense. Why you would want to cripple the blazing speed of the new Studio by running anything from externals is something I don’t understand.
