I have a Powermac G4 with two IEEE firewire ports. So, normally I have my DV capture device and a portable 120GB firewire drive plugged into them at the same time. I've been doing some heavy editing on this system like this for months now and only till recently have I experienced some serious drag, or delay when trying to access info from the firewire drive. The HD is rather new, so if it's the HD it should be under warrantee. Anyway, I notice if I try to startup FCE with the HD powered up and plugged in, it take at least 5-10 minutes to load!!!
Any suggestions? Is it my firewire port? the HD? ??
Thanks
