iTunes 7 on G5 DP 2GHz - stuttering audio that didin't on a G4 1.25GHz
I have a rather strange problem with iTunes. My library is only about 56 GBs.
I recently upgraded to a newer G5 computer.
Old computer: G4 1.25GHz single MDD, 380GB Raid with ATA card - iTunes has never had a problem playing songs and I've NEVER had it stutter the audio.
New computer: G5 2GHz DP (2003), 500GB Maxtor (on second ATA slot in G5) brand new drive just bought this week - I copied my entire iTunes library to this drive. Set up iTunes (and running the latest system and itunes software) to see this music library on the second drive. Now ALL songs will stutter at different times but basically I can't play a single song now without it stuttering off and on while playing.
What's up? The new computer is faster, more RAM, but doesn't have a RAID - just a single 500 GB Maxtor bought from Fry's Computers and formatted just like the startup drive (160GB).
Why is my music stuttering now?
