[QUOTE="MacsWork, post: 123715, member: 11094"] A scratch disk, ie a place to work on in process projects. If so, throughput could be a real issue especially with huge files. I know I've had problems with Buffalo devices running little database front ends and there was an issue with performance and lag. If you want to be using this as a location to import footage or media to while accessing it through an application I think you could be in for a disappointment. If you already have an external FW drive or RAID for using as a scratch location and then storing data on the NAS for archive purposes that seems like a better solution. Running a Buffalo NAS as a scratch disk seems like it would kill any ability for realtime effects or viewing. I have a hard enough time in FCP doing realtime using FW. [/QUOTE]
