[QUOTE="Scrappy, post: 692834, member: 61313"] @ work, I have the MacPro quad core x 2 - 4 GB ram - running leopard. My 1st question/problem is: is there a way to fix the constant writing to disc? If I am in photoshop & create a new layer/mask, sometimes doing nothing, I get the color wheel of death for 5 minutes! I opened the activity monitor & its writing to disc. sometimes @ 69MB/sec, but sometimes only @ 200k/sec, but it locks up the program until its done. Panther never gave me this problem. #2. I might turn this MAC into a server & get a single core pro for myself. Would these HD's work in the New MAC Pros? Western Digital Caviar Black WD1001FALS 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive thx! [/QUOTE]
