Led Zeppelin Classic Records 45 series -Am I nuts?
Herman, no I haven't compared them. I don't know how it would be possible without purchasing them. It seems that every classic series 45 set either has held its retail value or gone up so it probably wouldn't be difficult to buy, compare to the 33...

Computer-Based Audio Primer
Glyph drives have external power supplies and are fan cooled. I don't know if i'd be comfortable with an 800 gig hard drive that wasn't fan cooled. actually, who cares about the drive, it's the work getting it filled that you want to protect. 
DACs with FIREWIRE?
Hey drubin, how've you been?Hard drives don't come with firewire and USB always. For example, Glyph hard drives come with USB until you get up into the more expensive ones. Then it's only firewire. Seems the same with dacs. The expensive ones have... 
DACs with FIREWIRE?
hey rsbeck, i was thinking if i used a hard drive with only firewire then i'd need a dac with firewire. Did i miss a step? Does the dac have to go back into the computer processor first?I checked your computer audio system. Nice job. I was thinkin...
