Re: Mac Pro 3.0 or 3.2 (sorry if this has been asked)

Let's say you have a Comp with 4 uncompressed QT's and you render to an uncompressed QT, and you render with Multiprocessing enabled. (8cores = 16 GB Ram advised)
If you're using a single disk... the bottleneck of your system will be the harddrive !! There's to much data that needs to be fed to the processors so your 8 processors will only use about 20% of their power.

The cheapest solution:
use internal drives, 1 for the OS and 3 for Raid0
otherwise check the adverts on this page for external solutions.

cya,

Jan
