Installing in the correct PCIe slot also makes a difference.

FCP is working normal.

[Leonard Frankford] “Is there some way around this? I need to edit these files. Will I have to convert them to .mov first?”

Convert those files to ProRes. Your’e gonna have to learn the correct workflow for FCP if you intend to use these files. The are other NLEs that may work with your files without transcoding.

The applications have to remain on your boot drive. The extra media for Motion, DVDSP, Soundtrack Pro can go on an external drive.

I believe the manual covers the installation process.

Make sure your hard disks are not set to spin down. How are you connecting your drives? FW800/eSata recommended. USB, don’t even think about it!

What you need to do is create a clone of your system drive. Carbon Copy Cloner is a free download or pay for SuperDuper. Both do the same thing. After the initial clone, all you need to do is connect that drive to your system and it will backup only new files on your system. This creates a fully bootable drive in case of drive failure. That is something Timemachine cannot do.

Once you have your clone, reformat your RAID and use it for media storage.

Timemachine is great for the average consumer with little data on their computers.
