  Saving footage collection

  Posted by Fredy Schwerdtner on February 5, 2011 at 12:05 am

  Hi there,
  I would like an advise based on the experience of you guys.
  I always say that when “you have 2, in fact you have 1 and if you have 1 you definitely have nothing” . That is a good rule for making backups on HD.
  I have been collecting footage for some years and sometimes I use them on my projects and they are saved and organized in a external HD (with no mirror or raid) different from my scratch disk, which is an array with 4 HDs setup as a raid 5.
  What is the best ? Save the collection on the scratch disk or leave it where it is and make regular backups ?

  MacBook Pro 17″
  2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
  4GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
  (2) External HD LaCieMac (400/800 FW and USB)with 500GB -(2) USB External HD Western Digital (in cases) with 750GB
  OS X 10.6.5
  Final Cut Studio “3”
