Hi!
Was doing some research with my friend Google and came across a whole
heap of stuff to do with optimising your computer for Recording/Editing
Audio/Video, much of this stuff I already knew but several things I
thought worth noting.
be sure to keep your hard drives you do your recording/editing on as
defragmented as is possible, I use Diskeeper which takes care of all
that automatically so I just "Install and Forget" as far as Diskeeper is
concerned but if other users don't have an automatic solution then
you'll have to use the Disk Defragmenter software that comes with
Windows, its recommended that you defragment your drives around once a
week though if you know you've got a big editing project coming up and
you have a little time then run the Disk defragmentation software before
you start.
Where possible, install multiple drives on your system, one for the
operating system itself and associated files and another for your
audio/video work, that way Windows can quickly access your data files
without fighting with itself when trying to access files such as
library's or whatever else Windows accesses.
Happy Recording!
