Preparing for Your Next Project

By the time you finish your project, your computer’s hard disk should be full. Preparing
your hard disk for your next Final Cut Express HD project is essential.

In order to remove your entire project, you need to remove the following files:

Project files

Media files

Render files

Thumbnail files

Waveform files

To remove your source media:

1

Choose Final Cut Express HD > System Settings, then click the Scratch Disks tab to
locate the directory path to the source media files.

By default, Final Cut Express HD places these files in your home directory in the
/Documents/Final Cut Express HD Documents folder.

2

In the Finder, navigate to the appropriate folders and delete the files inside.
