Yeah that’s the thing I need to get a raid system. That way I don’t have to worry. How is yours? What model?

Thanks Bret for this help.

People crapped on FCPX for a while but the more I use it, the more I think it is pretty awesome in a lot of ways.

Hi Bret,

I tried it and it does work.

Yeah you are right on to not get rid of those H264’s. However I am trying to figure out a reason to have them on the same drive that I have my transcoded media on, in the same event library. To me it takes up twice as much space, and if my editing hard drive fails, I lose everything. That to me is the purpose of keeping those old H264’s on a separate drive right?

Thanks Bret,

So right now I can dismount the drive that I have the old H264 files and put that on my shelf and not have to relink?

Also,

I looked in preferences and I remember in old versions of FCPX you can set it to automatically playback optimized media. But I can’t find it anymore. Do you know where it is?

Great help thank you.

Ok that did work. Thanks so much.

Here is another question though. I transcoded media to my event library. However the files in my final cut project still link back to the old H264’s.

If the program is going to transcode media to prores, and my plan is to cut with those files, why is it linking back to the old files?

It seems to me that I need to relink to those transcoded files? Shouldn’t that just happen automatically?

Thanks,

Pete

I don’t know. What would the scenario be for both methods in post?

Hi Andy,

Thanks so much for giving me your thoughts on this. I am concerned because of the absence of a fan. It just seems to good to be true because these drives are so convenient to hook up.

Where online can I go and read posts commenting on the lacie rugged?

Thanks for your help. It is greatly appreciated.
