Anyone ever get this message? It just suddenly happened. My external hard drive that I have always been recording to is 2 TB and I'm not even close to filling it so I am baffled by this sudden bomb that's been dropped on me. Any suggestions would be most helpful. Thanks!!

Well, I checked my external drive and it was already set to record audio. It's a 3 TB usb drive with 2.5 TBs of remaining space so I've got plenty of space to record so I'm at a loss here. I've thrown away preferences, nothing.

I'm on a 2007 Mac Pro Quad Core. 10 gigs of memory and recording to a 3TB USB hard drive. After doing some research, I found out the PT 8 M-Powered doesn't like USB drives to well. At the suggestion of a fellow PT user and producer friend, I'm going to have to install a 7,200 rpm 1TB in the Mac Pro and record on that. What do you think?
