If you choose to use a FireWire hard drive, make sure it meets these requirements:

* The drive is the only device on the FireWire bus.
* The drive's speed is at least 7200 RPM.
* The drive can sustain minimum data rates appropriate for your video format (3.7 MB/s for DV).
* The drive uses a modern, high-performance bridge chip such as the Oxford 911 or 922.
* The drive uses its own power supply, and is not powered from the FireWire bus.

Important: Meeting these requirements does not guarantee the effectiveness or reliability of the drive. If a FireWire hard drive causes dropped frames during playback or recording, try moving the media to an Ultra ATA or SCSI drive.
