FCP 6.0.5LACIE drive 500gb – to – Gtech Drive Q 1tb
It has been a hell of couple days and I am still not where I would like to be. Folders / Media disappeared from My LACIE, since I bought a new drive and ran Data Rescue 2 on the LACIE to be saved to the G Tech. It appears a lot of the files are recovered although they are not labeled. When I opened the most important FCP project…
From the previous 61 media offline, I now have 4 media offline (although its more then 4 still missing) but when I try to reconnect the media clips missing, the list indicates Offline Files > Unspecified Path.
Should I just assume at this point these files were not recovered and reload the media from scratch? When I do that, will it then recognize these media files and conform to the edit?

This may be a dumb suggestion, but have you tried running Diskwarrior on the LaCie? Diskwarrior has been performed many life saving miracles for me in the past.
As for the missing media, if you have the actual media on your hard drive, you can manually reconnect the missing clips by right clicking the click in your sequence, selecting “reconnect”, then clicking the “Locate” button in the reconnect window.

not a dumb suggestion, however, after I purchased Disk Warrior I quickly learned it does not read MS DOS (fat 32) drives which the LACIE was formatted. I know, it should be MAC OS Extended I learned that now too.
First, I just need to recover this project, organize my drives, and reformat this one. thanks

If your media is on tape, you’d probably be better of just recapturing it.
