Hello
How how how can I move a project from the internal HD to an external raid?
Final Cut Pro X, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
Select the project in the library and use the Move function from the File menu.

Hi. That just moves the project files though doesn't it?
How do I move the actual media and ensure that all my editing remains?
Simple: First move the project from one drive to another INSIDE the FCPX gui (application):
Then... a dialogue box appears asking you how you wish to move the events associated with the project. (FCPX made the process VERY easy. Try it!)
i have a different dialogue
You're showing the duplicate project interface.
The difference is because you are copying, not moving; this is not a bad thing. You can make sure that the new project is working and *referencing the events in the right drive*, and then delete the original project.
Also, make sure that the media files are accessible - this is not a problem if you had the media copied to the events; if the original media is merely referenced, you'll only have aliases to the actual movie files inside the events. You can use "Organize Event Files" to copy everything into the events.
If I want everything copied, I should use the option duplicate project and clips and render files right?
All media was added to events.
I saw an option relink project files. Do I need to do that after the copy?
Thanks
