<p>You can actually get a 1 terabyte firewire drive for way less than 400. I almost bought one at Best Buy the other day for 160 and there are places where they're even cheaper.</p>
<p>My overall recommendation for your studio is computer-related: focus on PROCESSING POWER!!! This is probably why you're gonna want to go PC over Mac, because you can get more bang for your buck as far as processing speeds (GHz) and gigabytes of RAM. 2 GHz processors and 2 GB of RAM, for example, might seem like plenty to you right now, but as the software we use improves, and as you continue to add programs to your arsenal, you might find it won't be long before you're taxing the fuck outta your system, causing glitches, crashes, slowness and overall poor system performance. Get the fastest, most powerful processor you can afford and max out your memory... what seems like a lot now may not be enough in a couple of years (or even a few months!!!) Also if you can, avoid using your music computer (especially if it's not a Mac) to visit the internets so as to avoid viruses and worms and shit, and make sure you spend time and money on proper antivirus software and keeping your virus definitions updated.*</p>
