Hard Drive Requirements
For optimal audio recording and playback, all Pro Tools
systems require one or more Digidesign-qualified drives.
For a list of Digidesign-qualified hard drives, visit the
Digidesign website
(www.digidesign.com).
If you are using an ATA/IDE or FireWire hard drive, ini-
tialize your drive with Windows Disk Management
(Windows) or the Disk Utility application included with
Apple System software (Mac).
For more information, see Appendix C, "Hard
Drive Configuration and Maintenance."
Avoid Recording to the System Drive
Recording to your system drive is not recommended.
Recording and playback on a system drive may result in
lower track counts and fewer plug-ins.
Digidesign does not recommend recording to the
system drive. Record to a system drive only when
necessary.
