Disk churn

Post by Soundhound »

I have several hard discs connected (three lacie discs and one smaller one) and a couple of them churn constantly, using tons of cpu and slowing down the mac. Both discs I believe have large folders with samples in them, for use with DP and Machfive, etc. I actually haven't used DP or Machfive in months, though they are both loaded onto my Mac.

Has anyone experienced this problem and know how to make it stop perhaps?

thanks!

If you are using Tiger, add your disks to Spotlight's "Privacy" area. You may also want to scan them for bad blocks.
