    Posted by Andrew Spano on May 30, 2010 at 3:37 am

    I’m getting an external HD and would like to save ALL of my files/projects/rendered files onto it. Is there an easy way to set that up or do I have to change all save folders individually?

    Set the drive as the Scratch, auto save and render destination in the preferences.

    When you save a new project just point it to that drive. You only have to do that once.

    Just a, “I never read the manual question”.

    Yes, this should be in the FCP Basic Forum.
