FCP 6.06 and Video Lag

I'm running FCP 6.06 (I know, it's old) and I'm having issues with video lag both in the viewer and on the timeline. I'm running OS 10.6.8 on a 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8 GB of memory. The footage is RED Epic files but I've compressed everything to Pro Res 422 (HQ). I've got all the footage, the FCP file, the cache etc stored on a 4 TB hard drive that has over 2 TBs left (I had all the files on a 2TB drive and I thought that might have been the issue so I copied all the files to a larger drive). Every time I open a clip in the viewer, it plays for a few seconds and then the video lags while the audio continues. If I pause it, it will catch up but the problem repeats itself seconds later. Any tips or fixes would be appreciated!
