I am diving into vocal production and audio engineering after aspiring to do so for years, finally took the step, did the research and bought pro tools. Then I started realizing how much of a hassle file management was after watching a few KZbin videos. Literally began stressing out all day today as I bought a new SSD and pro tools and already have years of samples and instrumentals from producing, and wanted to make sure I was setting everything up in a way I won't regret, and after having corrupt files nightmares I am very scared of having to move files too much later. Seeing some youtubers do it one way and some do it another, I had no confidence in direction. So I say all that to say, THANK YOU MAN, the wording, the knowledge and the visual representation literally massaged my brain and saved me hours of time. Thank you!

Mike, first of all, please can I say a great big thank you for the vast array and comprehensive range of very informative videos you have produced. I will admit to not being very clever with computers but with your help, and the help of my son Ben (who introduced me to your channel) I manage to get on. Now for this video, FANTASTIC. I followed your advice and, step by step, rearranged my files and now my computer appears to be working much more quickly and efficiently, and my drives are clean and hungry with not a glitch from Cakewalk. I would add that during each process, due to my own lack of confidence, I kept taking photos of each step and writing down every folder/file move that I did so that I could double back if necessary. This, in the end, was not needed, though the whole operation did take pretty much a full day up... time extremely well spent. A big THANKS again, and following my experience, my son Ben E P (KZbin) is also watching your video to clean his computer up. All the best and keep well from England.

On release it will show a context menu with the option to create a shortcut with one click right away. It just needs to be renamed afterwards.

Thank you Sir! This is a great gap you’re filling in the Audio KZbin arena, fundamentals. 1) Can you do one of these for Mac (or get one of your Mac based friends like you’ve done before)? 2) I also have dozens of those Samsung EVO internal SATA SSDs. They’re great bang-for-buck Internal SSDs. However, what do you think of using either the Samsung T5/T7 USB-C drives EXTERNALLY (or their Sandisk equivalents), now that they come in 2TB capacities and can operate at 500/ 1000/ even 2000Mbps? On modern Macs, the USB-C bus speed is theoretically 10Gbps, so technically you should be able to run 5 of fastest External SSDs into a hub on 1 computer port at full speed. And since you’ll never be running all five drives full throttle in Audio Production, you should be able to get a larger hub and even more drives, say for backup and redundancy, or multiple VSTi Libraries or multiple Client Drives, and stay well below the 10Gbps bandwidth bottleneck, all while NOT opening a computer case. I currently have 4 Mac Pro towers for Audio and Video production and post, loaded up with a Ton of stuff not worth listing, other than the many massive HDD RAIDs not mentioned in this video. As soon as I get the time, I’m getting a M1 Mac Mini with the intention of testing the above theory, and stress testing it as a 2021 alternative system setup. Thus far though, in their component parts, I think we may have just entered a whole new era.

Just my personal opinion, from my experience on multiple Windows computers, I don't think there will be a performance decrease if you write your DAW project to your C Drive while working on it and then store it in the data storage second drive when finished along with other DAW projects. This is because the OS drive usually has the fastest access times and therefore would perform the best. The only exception would be if the C drive is close to being full or over 50% full in which case, system performance is compromised EXPONENTIONALLY. To summarise, working on big DAW projects on C drive is better as long as this C drive is not more than 50% full.

Hi Mike, another good video. Unfortunately I pretty much have only 2 physical drives but I still break up the physical drives pretty much as you have. Why? I find it easier to run my backups that way. There is a lot of stuff that does not change (photos, videos in my case) and other stuff that does. e.g. Projects and renders of tracks, finalised backing tracks and so on. I regularly backup the changes. The critical stuff has been copied to another system altogether (a laptop I use for performances). I still worry however. Soon I’ll need a new PC mainly because I’m out of good SSD space and my PC is getting too old for the higher speed SSD. I think I should have started this “in the beginning there was ....”. Tony

Instead of using simple shortcuts I usually use junctions. So I make sure I can still navigate to specific files inside the folder from its original location. Just move the desired folder to its new location (or copy and rename the original folder) and then use command prompt (CMD) and enter the following command: mklink /j "SHORTCUT LOCATION" "TARGET LOCATION" Of course the SHORTCUT LOCATION and TARGET LOCATION have to be replaced with the corresponding folder names and locations. Like: mklink /j "C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3" "E:\VST-Plugins\VST3" This is working great for all kinds of Sound and Sample Libraries as well as the VST3 plugin location or even your Dropbox folder, for example. Edit: Some locations require you to run cmd as an admin to create the junction, depending on the write permissions of the location where you want to create it.

BTW: Inside CMD enter mklink /? for a detailed description or help with this command.

One more thing: If you use junctions you should exclude either the junctions or the target folders from your backup. Otherwise the whole folder content gets backed-up twice, which is probably not what you want. Instead, you can create a simple batch file to restore all your junctions, if you havee to restore your system from a backup one day. And btw: Junctions are only working on NTFS formated drives, which is todays standard format on Windows systems. The drives can be internal or external drives but no network drives, as far as I know.
