Drives & FireWire800 Ports Have Hierarchy?
Howdy!
I have two FireWire 800 drives (LaCie) and for some reason FCP only sees one of them in my System Settings. The only way I can get FCP to see them is through the Admin drive and then selecting my desired HD.
Other programs and my desktop display everything just fine.Things to note:
– Not Daisy-Chained
– The first 800 port seems to create a hierarchy, and depending on the combination, will only display one of the two drives (in FCP’s system settings)
– Flip flop the previous statement and the two drives and both display normally (in FCP’s system settings)Is there some sort of programmed hierarchy within the drives, ports, or FCP that may be causing one to disappear? Port 2 seems to be a touch slower and causes the most problems.
Any information as to what is going on is greatly appreciated. I hope my description(s) helped. Have a great day!-Alex-

I have noticed this behavior when I mount a drive AFTER Final Cut is already open. Were both drives mounted before you launched FCP?

Yes, my drives were already mounted to my computer before I start up FCP… I’m so perplexed about this haha!
Is this going to affect my file routs since it’s going through “Admin” and not my User profile?-Alex-
