Had 30gb of space left on my hard drive, imported a couple hours of clips, and now I have none.
Exactly what the title says. I placed several gigs worth of footage into FCP X, put them in the timeline, and then left my computer overnight. I wake up, and FCP alerts me that I've run out of space on my hard drive (I'm leaving out some details but it was along those lines). For the life of me, I can not figure out how to find out what has used up dozens of gigs of space and where the responsible files are located.
Does anyone know why this happened, how I can get my storage back, and how to prevent this from happening again (of possible at all)? I am completely new with this software, forgive me if it's incredibly obvious. I just did not expect that much hard drive space to be taken up.
