Hi I want to be able to select which drive I use to place my projects in, at presents it seems to go to either my HD or my Media drive and I have no way of choicing which drive I need to use. I also would like to be able to put a project on an external drive in I need to. Thanks Brendan
When you import something this is when and where you can assign the destination.
A popup window appears with the necessary fields to select.

When you create a new project, it will go into the drive you designate. The same holds for events.
Open the project library, and select the drive where you want the project to reside. Then File->New Project... and it will be in that drive.
Select a drive in the event library, go to File->New Event and the event will be created in that drive.
Also: if you realize after the fact that some event or project is not in the drive you desired, you can move it. Do it inside Final Cut Pro, with File->Move Event... or File->Move Project...
Thank Luis, I got the project into the drive where I need it to be. This is an external G-Tech drive, I had already saved my events there.
Now when I tried to move another Project there, I got a choice of moving only the Project or also move referenced events with the project. I'm moving project into the same drive where the event aleady resides. Any advice on which I should do ??
Thanks again

Since the events already reside there, you need only move the project.
Thanks for your help Al'
Done and everything is there. I moved up from FCP 7 recently, so still finding my way around it.
I spent a lot of time trying to find the answer but none explained it as simble as you did.
again Thanks 🙂
