Offload Data From Media to Your Computer
- Connect a RED MINI-MAG or REDMAG 1.8" SSD to your computer.
- Copy the RDM folder on the SSD to the archive storage media. This copies all the media and metadata files.
NOTE: You do not need to copy the log, magazine profile, or presets files.
- Properly eject/unmount the SSD from the computer before physically removing the SSD from the RED STATION or before turning off the RED STATION.
NOTE: Longer R3Ds are broken up into 4GB segments that are grouped in the RDC folder. When you open the clips in an application that accepts R3D® files, the clips are strung together into one continuous clip.
RED Watchdog
On Mac® computers with REDCINE-X PRO® installed, RED® Watchdog mounts RED media as read-only by default, which means that you are unable to write files (including firmware upgrade files) to the SSD. RED Watchdog is identified by the RED Coin icon located on the right side of the Mac Menu Bar.
To enable read/write, follow the instructions below:
- Click the RED Watchdog icon.
- Select Preferences.
- Select Read-Write from the Mount RED Media drop-down menu.
