Right so I don't really know how to Google search this, or narrow down my search.
Basically I currently save my editing wedding video projects on to an internal hard drive and then back up by copy and pasting all the relevant files and folders that i'm working with, including the Sony Vegas project file on to portable external hard drives.
My question is, if my internal hard drive where to one day fail on me I would then have to use my backup drive.
But then if I opened the Sony Vegas project file in my back up drive I would have the tedious job of finding the video files, overlays etc on my back up hard drive as the hard drive letter / pathway would change.
Is there a quick way for Sony Vegas to basically find all the files on my external hard drive without me having to go through each individual file on the time line 1 by 1 ?
Time is money. And when you have multiple projects to work on it makes all the difference.
Any help would be appreciated, or suggestions on improving my workflow.
EDIT: I guess if I just replaced the faulty drive and gave it the same drive letter as it originally had, I wouldn't have this problem ?
