I remember back when it was exciting to be able to run 8 channels of 16Bit/44.1k audio! Had to have a SCSI A/V tuned HD to pull it off.
$600 for a 2GB HD that sustained 7.5MB/Sec... and that was blazing fast.
We live in crazy good times...
I think I had a 1-gig SCSi for my first HD system. I don't remember what it cost but I think it was more than $600. All the backups were to 8mm tape cassettes and the two interface moduals (8-tracks)cost $3,000 apeice. Thought I was king on the block back in those days.
