Thanks for the info, Joe! I’m gonna try a new drive and see how it acts.

Copy that. Thank you for the advice. I’ll definitely swap it over.

No. I’m taking source files, final exports, and other assets from mac to pc, when needed.

I’ve edited 7 feature films in fcp using drives formatted to ExFat, without issue. They’ve always worked great so I’ve never looked into it. Good to know there’s an issue though. Thanks for the heads up.

So AFPS is the way to go, but it’s for Mac only right? Is there a usable format that’s able to communicate with both Mac and PC like ExFat?

Oh wow. That’s interesting to hear. I’ve been using ExFat daily for about 16 years with fcp. Over 100 features, shorts, commercials, etc. I’ve never noticed any issues or had this specific problem. Thanks for the heads up. I’ll look into that.

Thanks Ben,

there’s 5.7TB of space, out of 8TB total. The drive is ExFAT instead of APFS, but I’ve used ExFAT for about a decade and never had the issue before. Unless that’s a new problem with the newer OS.

Yeah, seems that’s what’s happening. The footage is all on an external hard drive. Another thing about it is that it frequently “goes red” when the computer goes to sleep and I click the space bar to wake it up.

Thanks for the info! I normally edit anything from 30 second promos to 2 hour features so it’s typically in use. 4k with proxies in fcpx, using an external drive.

Assuming I pull the trigger on a temporary 2020 iMac, how vital is it to get an i9 version versus i7? Thanks!!

Thanks for your thoughts! I know it’s definitely a stop gap. Just trying to decide what price point makes sense for the limited time it’ll be super viable. I’m about to dig around and find the best bet. Looks like they’re in the 800-1500 range.
