  Media Drive Organization

  Posted by Chris Anderson on September 22, 2008 at 7:21 pm

  I keep my project, graphics and music on an internal SATA drive separate from the system drive and keep my capture scratch media on an external raid (0).
  Is it best to keep all this on the raid?
  I think I’m going to move my projects back to the system drive.

  I’m still trying to narrow down what keeps causing FCP to keep quitting upon exports.

  Thanks,
  Chris

  I think most folks around here keep a project folder on their startups and put everything else on media drives.

  Have a wonderful day.

  After 5 or six years, I’ve got system that has worked well for several months.
  I Have four drives:
  System
  Capture Media
  Render Media
  Output

  This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”

  I have a tutorial DVD that covers this and more…all about how to be organized in FCP.

  The link is in my signature, or click on my head at the top of the forum.
