No to be honest. I could detect no discernible difference between my built in Apple hard drive and my Seagate 320gb external. Biggest change was the import / output sample rates. I think a solid state will be different though.

Rob,
As you know I am taking an increasing interest in all this. One thing that I am still not sure about. What digital output options does a Mac have? I am assuming you have as standard USB, firewire and toslink (optical). Is there a coaxial digital output? What output do you use?
Thanks
Phil
