To Rename you want to change the (Roldan) to your name from this:

To This

On your external hard drive look to see if you already have an AVID MediaFiles folder.


If you do then skip this part.


If you don't then on the "Root" level of the hard drive make a folder called AVID MediaFiles then inside that make a folder called MXF then inside the MXF folder make a folder called 3472
