New Resolve Hard Driver setup and Project settings

PostFri Sep 15, 2017 11:15 pm

Hello everyone:
I need a little help setting up resolve 14 and need to understand where they place the project files. My setup is 500GB SSD drive for OS. A 550Gb drive for project media files I used this also to transcode AVCHD to DNXHD. I also used a Drobo 5D which works well when I transcode to DNXHD but I haven't tried it on 4K media. But this setup is for Premiere but what is the drive setup for Resolve? Also, where does resolve place the project files? I do not want them on my C drive. Newbie.

The first location in your media storage list is where the stills and cache will go. You can set the location of your disk database in the project manager.
