scratch disk was created by BillyFoto

I just logged and transported files for 13 sequences and discovered the scratch disk was set for my laptop, not the external drive I am working with. What do I need to do to make sure everything is connected correctly? Ugh.

In FCP 7, set the Scratch Disk to the external drive, pointing to a "Final Cut Documents" folder on the ext.
Quit FCP 7.
Copy the Final Cut Documents folder (that contains all of FCP's working folder, including the Capture Scratch folder) to the external drive.
Launch FCP 7 and verify.

If it works just fine, all media is in tact, delete the original on the internal drive.
