I’m currently using Final Cut Pro 5.0.1. I’m actually reading and writing on the same drive but would it make a difference if I partition my drives? Source videos on the partition and render files on the main drive? My storage speed is 7200 rpm and I do have more than 20% (maybe even 50) of the drive free.
I’m starting to realize the Unlimited RT works great, much better than before. Clips that I’ve captured from my mini DV tend to respond faster in FCP 5 as oppose to clips i’ve extracted from dvd. Thanks for responding!
