i have a dual 1 Ghz g4, with an 80 gig hard drive and another 100 gig. my question is am i limited to only 2 hard drives. i mainly use them for video storage and editing. if so i guess its time to break down and get a raid. any suggestions? I also need a good audio card, mainly for voice over studio work and such.

thanks

for a 2000 model imac DV.

if you have the same G4 I have, which I think you do (except you have better monitors), then you can hold 4 internal hard drives.
Two in the back vertically on the ata-100 thing and another two below the optical drives on the ata-66 thing. hope that helps.
