Setting up the internal drive
You can save media items from your USB drive to the internal drive.
When you first set up your internal drive, it is useful to copy the entire contents of your USB drive to the internal drive. All your media items and folders are copied exactly to the internal drive, for pathways up to 480 characters, or fewer, depending on the language you use.
Unsupported items are also copied to the internal drive. You can't see these items but they still take up space. Check that your USB drive contains only supported items before you start.
