COPYING PRORES FILES FROM THE CAPTURE DRIVE

When a Capture Drive containing ProRes files from the ALEXA XT is loaded in the Dock it will appear like any other external drive on the Desktop:

The Codex VFS drive is always shown, but will be empty until a Capture Drive containing ARRIRAW/CanonRAW/HD recordings is loaded. After loading the Capture Drive, the files are available to be copied from the Codex VFS drive. 

Open the drive to access the ProRes files, which will be in a Reel folder along with an ALE file (metadata for Avid) and an XML file (for Final Cut Pro): 

Copy the top level Reel folder (A002R20Z in the above example) to another storage device to back-up the image data. Any copy tool can be used to back-up files from the Capture Drive to another storage device.
