After Effects Setup – Installation, Disk Cache and Footage

[Todd Kopriva]

Disk cache must go on your fastest drive with the fastest connection—so your internal SSD.

Footage should go on a relatively fast drive.

Writing rendered files out is (usually) not a big bandwidth hog, so you can probably write out to your slower HDD.

Thanks Todd!!
So, just to be sure… having the project files and disk cache on one SSD, reading the footage from the raid and rendering out to the slower hdd sounds like a good plan?
