Optimal setup HDD and Software Settings

I am doing a system reload to setup one of my systems to be
dedicated to video editing and effects. My Hardware is:
MB: P6t Delux V2
OS: Win7 64bit
CPU: I7 920 (Stock no OC)
GPU: Nvidia 285
RAM 12GB @1600
HDD 1: 500GB 7200 RPM
HDD 1: 500GB 7200 RPM
HDD 1: 1TB 7200 RPM
HDD 1: 1TB 7200 RPM
HDD 1:1.5TB External USB for backups only
Software I user Premiere Pro CS5, After Effects CS5, SoundBooth CS5 and Photoshop CS5. My question for software is how to best set it up. I have seen many caching/Scratch setups and various CPU Ram allocations and honestly I am a bit confused by it. Also the render Performance vs Memory seems to make no difference in render times. Is one better to select over the other? I use Dynamic Linking a lot so I am not sure if that makes a difference in anything.
I know all this info can be found in various threads in the forum but I get some conflicting info as I read through them.
One last question. Should a reboot be done prior to exporting? I might spend hours doing effects and cuts and I am concerned the RAM gets a little full so I reboot before I render because it gives me a warm fuzzy, but is it really necessary?
Thanks in advance... TJ

Thanks for the reply.. Can you recommend or direct me to the software settings in Premiere and AE?
***EDIT*** One other thing. Would I get much of a performace boost by upgrading my GPU to a 485 or my CPU to a 950?

  • Wireless setup WPA2 and software

    Problem. I have about 25 airport extreme base stations put around our school. There seems to be one problem. We moved our network to WPA2 and have a radius server all setup and working. everything is working perfect except when we try to get 25 ibooks working on one airport. After about 19 or 21 connect the seems to be a problem with the airport and it locks up. What is going on, i think that these airports can handle about 50 encrypted users. And about this software Airport management utility and software, where do i get it, would help my setup.
    thanks

    The Airport Management Tools software package is available via the link under the heading "Additional Resources" at http://www.apple.com/support/airport
    Several people have noted problems with Base Stations in multiple Base Station setups, which seem to be related to use of firmware version 5.6. These problems seem to go away with use of the previous version 5.5.1 (which of course doesn't support WPA2) - get it at:

  • Easy setup / project and timeline settings

    Hello,
    I have a question about what settings I should use to edit the following type of clips I recorded.
    1280x720 29.92 H.264
    48.0 Khz - 32-bit Floating Point audio format
    Square pixel asoect
    This is what comes up in FCP.
    If I just view the clip in a player it says:
    h.264 1280x720, millions
    AAC 2 channels 48000 hz
    29.97
    When I put it in the timeline with the preset HDV-720p30 it render the picture and the audio beeps which I have to render.
    Any suggestions would be great.
    Thanks,
    Carl

    What you need to do is convert that to an editing format. ProRes for example. And yes, the file sizes will get much larger. You use Compressor for this...Advanced Format Conversions.

  • Ideapad U410 - What to Move to HDD and How?

    Hey there everyone! So I recently ordered this awesome U410 IdeaPad, and it's just wonderful! It came with a 32GB SDD and a 700GB HDD. Now, the problem is, all of the main files are on the SDD, but it's almost completely out of space, and the only thing I've downloaded so far is FireFox!
    Now, I've already set up the Hard Drive and gone through the wizard, gave it the name D: and all that good stuff. My question is, which files should I move over to the D drive, and more importantly, how do I do that? Is there a way to move EVERYTHING over, or is that a bad idea? I'd like to move everything over (such as the Program Files, Program files x86, PerfLogs, Drivers, and so on) unless it isn't a wise thing to do. If someone could give me some guidance in this, that'd be awesome!

    hi JTA777,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    In addition to what LenBlazer have said, did you receive your unit with Freedos and installed the OS in the SSD?
    AFAIK, there are two configuration of this unit.
    1st Setup: HDD and SSD is on RAID (OS is installed on the HDD and the SSD is used as a cache drive using Intel Smart Response Technology).
    2nd Setup: HDD and SSD is partitioned separately and SATA nide is set as AHCI (OS is installed on the HDD and the SSD is used as a cache drive using Expresscache).
    Ideally, the OS should be installed on the HDD if the SSD is less than 64GB as the OS will eat approx. 20-25GBGB with Win7 SP1.

  • What are the correct setup and system settings for importing HDV video from tape?

    I keep trying different "easy setups" and system settings/preferences in order to import both the audio and video from HDV recordings on miniDV tape to no avail in either FCE4 or FCP5.  I import via firewire from the camera.  My computer "sees" the camera and controls playback (I can hear the audio) but no video displays for capture (just color bars).
    My camera is a Canon Vixia HV40 and my computer is a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    I've tried the HDV easy setup...no video...
    I've tried HDV 1080i/60 as I saw recommended somewhere else...no video...
    Captures standard video just fine but I'd like to try editing some higher def footage.
    Any suggestions?
    Many thanks.

    The combination of all these helpful ideas solved the problem.
    I set AV settings to HD and Apple Intermediate Codec HDV 1080i/60 AND set the cameras output to "locked" HDV.  Funny, it had been on "A" (Auto) before and should have simply sensed the need for HD output.  I then tried to capture using "A" again and this time it detected the difference between SD footage and HDV footage (I had clips of both kinds on the same tape).
    I ran similar capture tests on FCP 5.1, FCE 4, and FCPX and all three programs captured HDV video and audio.
    Thanks again everyone.  Be sure the camera is set to output HDV or "A".

    and i find many people have met the same thing. But they are spartan  series FPGA and i try to low the Resistances of Mode pins,M0 M1 and M2, but the problem does not been solved.
    I have read the status Registers and find there is an over-temperature state 
    and in Impact i could not readback the registers. It is strange.
    I am anxious about this problem and have not solved it yet
    What reasons may it be?
    Hope for your answer, thank you

    Hi~I want to know if you solve the configuration problem for virtex-6?
    As I encounter the  same configuration problem, I want to consult  you with some question.
    Can I have your email?

    I have measured the VCCINT and find it is 1.0V, not 2.997V;
    That is not at all surprising.  I always assumed the problem is with reading the XADC (system monitor) block and not with the voltage or temperature.
    my Reference board is ML605
    That would have been nice to know at the beginning...
    It seems that you have selected the correct mode, assuming your jumpers are set as required in the ML605 Hardware User's Guide.  See table 1-27, table 1-33 and the note below it about switch S1.
    I'm not that familiar with the details of this reference design, but it may be that the slave SelectMap circuitry requires a reset or power cycle to actually configure the FPGA.  Have you tried power-cycling to see if the FPGA boots from the flash?
    I'd also suggest that you select the V6 in the JTAG chain view, then go to the debug menu of Impact and select Read Device Status (this is from memory, but it's something like that).  That will not only show the bits of the configuration status register, but also describe what each bit means.  Among other things you can check the state of the FPGA's configuration logic and the Mode pins.

    Yes I have put in the correct password, its all numbers so can't get it wrong really.
    It has connected before as has my iPod and that won't connect either. I have checked that they aren't on the blocked list of the wi fi. Managed to download the new version of iOS and that hasn't made a difference.
    I have the wi fi plugged directly into the computer rather than the booster hub as the computer won't connect to it when its in the hub. I did get the iPad to connect to the internet when it twas in the hub but once I upgraded the iOS it won't accept the wifi password in the hub either.

    Hi,
    I hope this ends in the right place. I need a software download for my Satellite R25-S3513, I'm not sure if it is a toshiba software or not, but it was located in the control panel window and it's called tablet and pen settings(it's use to control the buttons locate it on the left lower side of the screen). For some reason I still have the driver, because I see it on the right bottom of the taskbar but when you click on the icon it only said tablet button enable or disable but it doesn't let me make changes to the buttons or it does take me to properties windows to make changes either....
    please any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!

  • What is the best setup (cords, hardware and software) for converting tape cassettes to mp3 using iMac?

    I have a huge collection of tape cassettes that I want in my iTunes library.  I want to know what the best cords, hardware (type of Tape cassette player/recorder) and software to use.

    It depends on what kind of inputs your Mac has:
    If your iMac is a 2012 or older model it probably has an audio line input, in which case you can directly connect your tape deck outputs to your iMac.  Generally this requires a cable with 2x RCA male connectors on one end and 1x 1/8" (3.5mm) stereo male connector on the other end.
    If you have a more recent iMac that does not have a line input you will need to get a USB audio interface like a Focusrite Forte, but in these cases you will need to pay attention to the kind of cable inputs the USB device has.
    In both cases you will need recording software.  There are many choices.  I have used Sound Studio with great success for tapes, vinyl and live recordings.  (Note: if you are using a USB audio interface it may come with its own recording software.)
    Pay attention to whether or not your tapes were recorded with or without Dolby B or C noise reduction; and also whether or not your tape deck supports none, Dolby B or Dolby C - getting each tape matched with your deck settings makes a big difference in the results.  And depending on how quality conscious you are you may also want or need some noise reduction software, in which case I suggest looking at Wave Arts MR Noise, SoundSoap or Audacity. 
    You might also consider just purchasing selected CDs instead of investing in all the work required to set up, record, edit & clean up recordings from some of your old tapes.

  • Enterprise setup and software

    Dear friends,
    I own a couple shoes retail stores. The information I get is through notebooks and paper material in general.
    I would like to setup a database which will store data like customers, products, warehouse, etc.
    I cannot use software to enhance accounting, since Greek law don't accept random developer ERP software, but the ones the gorvenment has approved.
    Nevertheless, I don't care about enhancing accounting at the moment, I just wish to get better information route.
    Would you propose a hardware (hardware & networking) and software setup that will effectively serve my information needs ??
    After some googling, I think that a mac server running lightspeed and several iPads will serve me well...
    Are there better alternatives ???
    Thanks

    Mac (does not need to be a server) runnig filemaker and couple of ipads with filemaker also loaded.  up and running with 20 mins.
