  • Keeping source files in hard drive or solid state drive.

    Posted by Jun Kim on March 31, 2015 at 3:04 pm

    I have a PC that i built. I have had 1 TB hard drive and recently purchased 250GB solid state drive.
    I am going to install windows and adobe on solid state drive and keep my old hard drive as storage.

    so i was wondering using adobe programs and project files in solid state drive is useless if i keep my source files in my old hard drive?

    Be sure to use the SSD as your Media Cache Database. Preferences > Media > Media Cache Database > Browse…

    Your render times will be noticeably faster. If your spinning disks are 7200rpm, you won’t bottleneck those.
