How do I transfer my project from one scratch disk to another?
My current scratch disk is too slow because it uses WiFi and I'm wanting to transfer all my work from my current disk to another. How do I do this?
iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Copy all the media files associated with your project to the other drive (preferably a Firewire connected 7200rpm hard drive). Don't worry about the render files; they usually don't reconnect properly. After copying the files, delete the originals (but don't empty the trash yet) and then open the project and you will need to reconnect the media files by navigating to the new location. You'll also need to set the new location as the Capture/Scratch disk in FCE's preferences.
Once that's completed, re-render.
