Stopped in at a Staples when I was last in the city and saw the Samsung EVO 850 1TB was on sale for C$349 so I picked one up. My drives now consist of a 500GB Samsung EVO SSD (OS and Programs), EVO 1TB (yet to be determined) 1TB Toshiba 7200 rpm drive (storage), and an older (about 5 years old) WD 7200 black 2TB drive (storage).
I plan on replacing the older WD 2TB with a 6TB newer WD Black drive, in fact was going to do that first but bought the SSD when I saw the sale price.
How best can I use this new SSD drive for using with Resolve - should I use it for proxy files, or put my unedited 4K video files on it, or use it for a rendering destination? My biggest concern/issue with Resolve (14.1) now is getting smooth playback while editing. Sometimes I get nice smooth video without even generating proxy files, sometimes even with proxy files generated I can't get smooth playback.
I'm running an i7 6800 3.4Ghz 6 core processor, 16GB ram & 8GB RX480 GPU.
Thanks in advance..
