Where to keep the drive internal or external libraries?

Question #1. I'm an old school and used to keep the media on an external drive and internal SSD flash disk application. (FCP7) I was thought to keep them separate for optimal performance. Now, I hear very often to keep the libraries on SSD internal flash drive. Why? First of all I can't consolidate as images can fill the space.

Question #2. I am using a Seagate FW 800 as external, is replacement with USB 3.0 would improve performance?

Question #3. I have many USB 3.0 devices. I have to constantly to move as my iMac does not provide sufficient USB3.0 outs. I read that USB powered ports creates problems.

Thank you.

P.S. One of the 3rd party plugins companies support highly advisable to keep the libraries on a flash SSD drive internal

1. it may be a valid option to store the library on an SSD - especially if you travel and work on a laptop but I'm not hearing, saying that it is the best practice.  And you're right that media can fill disk quickly enough. What developer recommends it?

2. Yes.  I guess that your connection to the FW drive is via an adapter Thunderbolt. So you should be really better off choosing a Thunderbolt drive.

3. possibly. Maybe someone else will be chime.

  • Backup hard drives internal and external to separate the partitions on an external drive of a second... ?

    I want to back up an internal hard drive (let's call it 'A') and (B) external drive using Time Machine. Both are 1 TB in size, so I bought a 2 TB external drive and created two partitions (C and D) on this subject, only to receive each backup. So:

    A = internal hard drive

    B = external drive (for "overflow" files)

    C = partition to external drive for backups of A

    D = partition to external drive for backups of B

    My question is, can I set up Time Machine so that A back up C, every time the 2 TB drive is connected, and B backup up to D whenever the two external drives are connected? I thought it would be possible, but at the opening of the Time Machine preferences and selecting D for the first time I get a message saying:

    "You want to stop backup up to 'C' and use"D"instead or back up at the same time?

    If you use the two, Time Machine will take turns backup up to "C" and "D". »

    I wonder if it would just be easier to return to a single partition on the hard disk of 2 TB and have the time machine to perform a backup of everything, that is, both A and B?

    Last question: I'm doing this to improve Yosemite to El Capitan. the operating system affect what I'm trying to get time Machine to do?

    Thank you!

    Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support

    I have a non-partitioned device TM backup of your data and your OS disk at once

    If in case you partition and drive "B" needs more than what is on the partition and drive 'A' don't you avoid warning.

    update of the OS is fine, as it will give an output back to a previous TM operating system where you need it, but it is compatible across versions.

    I guess you have a Realtek sound card and Realtek HD audio Manager should appear in Control Panel.

    Please check this Realtek HD audio Manager.
    The speakers on the right tab, you will see the options analog & digital.
    Right click one of the option and check if you could see a few options that provide a framework in order to mute the speakers.

    You will also see the option called: the advantage of the device settings.

    Hello

    What is a USB HDD?
    You n t need any driver, and there is no drivers for an external USB HDD.

    The USB driver is part of the Windows OS and it s already installed.
    The USB HDD must be fitted with a plug & play device which means that should be recognized automatically after you connect to the laptop USB port.

    What OS you have and what laptop is it?
    The operating system is up to date?
    USB ports are correctly listed in the Device Manager?

  • Keep the drive hard folder Structure...

    So one thing that always annoyed me about the feature of backup/restore with Adobe Elements is that she didn't have to keep the folder structure.  For example, I keep all my photos in Pictures\ \Weddings \Events \Etc.   That way if I want to quickly browse the hard disk a file without using Adobe I know what sound file in.

    The last time I used the Adobe restore function, it just restored all in 1 folder.  Is there a way to get around this or changed in version 10?

    Hello

    Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 PSAE7, I bought and it is with Vista on early. I decided to upgrade (/ downgrade) it to XP, but there is problem with the driver for graphics (Radeon HD 2600 Series).

    I can't find anywhere ati drivers (in fact I found it on the site ati.amd.com, but on this forum that I read that Toshiba drivers are changed so that the Radeon is overheating) and I am wonderig if Vista that works under XP (I downloaded all the drivers but ati one)?

    .. and is possible to downgrade my Vista to XP Pro through Miscrosoft website (or something like that) or do I have to reinstall using my old copy (provided with the old Toshiba)?

    PS.

  • The Image separately two drives internal/5 external disk Partitions

    I have a 650 GB and a drive of 1 TB internal and bought a 2 to external for backup.  Imagery can be put in place so if a single internal drive fails, can I replace it and restore only this player?  Can you also set up so that you can restore the C: partition only in the case of corruption?

    I am running Vista Home Premium which is unable to do a full backup of the system.   I have an older version of Ghost that I'll try to update.  Ghost me get there?

    Are the main reasons for imaging in the case where the operating system is corrupt or a virus that cannot be deleted and that the Windows system restore recover. (It's just what happened, but I was only saved data files). What is the best strategy to make regular updates to the image and not pick up corruption even?  Would a normal picture of differential backups let me return to a safe point in time which is not available if do incremental backups where the bit of archive is deleted, and you only have the last version of OS? Is there a better strategy?  A picture C: allows you to start or what I have to do a separate boot CD?  How do you do that?

    Another related issue: Ghost use compression?  Via compression RAW photo files result in loss of quality as the conversion to JPEG compression do?

    Thank you very much!

    Note that the image restoration is absolute, you can not restore animals and individual files.

    Best thing (in my opinion)

    Create an image of the C (OS disk) driver, keep doing your differential backups.
