Subject: [LUG] [GEN] Oxford Bridge hard drives for recording? 		Message #123089
I am looking at getting a hard drive and saw an ACOM drive 5400 60 gig firewire drive for a pretty good price. It has a 30 mb/sec sustained transfer rate which I thought was pretty good. Someone had mentioned that a drive with an Oxford Bridge was a have-to-have for someone doing digital audio. Does anyone know anything about drives and the OxfordBridge?

Most firewire drives today have the Oxford 911 bridge [if it is an older Oxford 910, you don't want it] But a 5400 rpm drive [except in the case of internal drives for laptops] is not suitable for audio. You need a 7200rpm drive, minimum. Dave Eager

The "Oxford 911" chipset isn't the most important point in this case, although you do indeed want Oxford 911 and not anything else (unless something better comes along in the future). f-erenc szabo, smarty pants Z+E+R+O+B+E+A+T "NOW POWERED BY THE MIRACLE OF THE TRANSISTOR!"

Can't imagine going with anything less than a 7200 rpm drive. Price difference is minimal. I find the combination of an ADS firewire (with oxford 911) drive kit filled with a WD 8MB Cache drive rocks. I've got 2 of them set up - one for my G4, and one for my P4 laptop.
