Could you please explain in detail exactly what you had BEFORE and what is MISSING now?

After a four-day capture with many version saves along the way, suddenly 30% of my audio files have vanished. The visual files remain, but somehow only the audio files are gone! I will be able to recapture via batch – but what a pain, and worse, why is this happening? (Second time in the last month.)
Checked when various versions of project files were modified and all with offlined files were “modified” at exact same time. Did I click something I shouldn’t have – or is this more FCP voodoo?
Running FCP 4.5, Kona2, Huge Ultra 320, Atto SCSI. The computer is connected to the internet (a worm/virus?)

What did you capture FROM?
Just so we don’t keep playing 20 questions… please be VERY SPECIFIC as to EXACTLY what you had, and have lost.
i.e.
DV tapes, captured as Audio only –or– CD’s imported cuts –or– VO Tool captures –or– AIFF’s or mp3 files converted, etc. -
Captured media was audio + video. Source was mini-DV and BetaSP. Video files go to Capture Scratch on Huge Ultra 320. Audio goes to 300gig internal drive with plenty of it left. Somehow, numerous audio files vanished – as in they are no longer on the drive. Zero results show up on “Find” searching all volumes.
There is no pattern to what files vanished other than they all were audio files.

Ah HAH!
You should NOT split-capture your audio and video files (especally in DV format).
They should be captured as one file to one Capture Sctrach folder on one disk.(See why its important to be very SPECIFIC in your question?)
