Any way to easily update the library on external disc ? When having a huge library with many projects and events, I like the feeling that all my work is saved on another disc as well, in case ... After making few new steps, is there any way just to update the backup or one has to erase the full library on external disc and transfer it (100GB) there again ?

FCPX Storage Can I copy a Library from FCPX on my MBP then move the copy to an external drive? Then, when I'd like to use that library again and work on the project within it, can I simply move it back from the external onto my MBP and into FCPX again? Related, can I work on FCPX on an external and have all the Libraries, backups, media stored on my external? If so how? THANKS!!!
