Hi Ken,
The files are huge, as you know. Swapping back and forth to my current 7K
drives just isn't making it even though they have a lot of space. I have
noticed that MF processing on my Air is noticeable faster and I'm thinking
it's the SSD. So I'll give it a try for $100 in the MacPro.
Thanks for the suggestion,
Bob
