Moving Stored to another drive

[PaulDaisy]

Can I move the Stored folder to another drive and have BI preserve the Stored clips in the list of clips for viewing? I have about 400 Gb of stored clips that I don't want to overwrite, and I want to make the folder bigger but it is presently on the same drive as New and making it bigger would eat into the size of New.

Isn't this logically the same as nuking a corrupted database and rebuilding it ? If so then you should be OK after moving the folder, updating the folder settings, and rebuilding the db.

I tend to do a full backup of the pc before I make big changes. It has saved me many times

Thanks, it may be logically the same. But I am not clear about what the rebuilding of the DB does exactly: does it go through all BVR files and catalogue them all from the folder locations currently in the configuration? Does it also recognize if the BVR files were "protected" or not?

I'm afraid that is a question for Support
