[Avid-L2] Media management workflow

Hello

I work on Media Composer Soft

This I how I manage my media. I'm writing this because I wonder if anyone else has a workflow that's better?

I edit both internal and external drives.
When creating a new project I also go into the MXF folder and create a folder there with a higher number than previous numbers. I also create a text file in the MXF folder where I note what is on what folder like this:
1 - PROJEXT X
2 - PROJECT X Shoot in mall
3 - PROJECT Y
4 - PROJECT Z TRANSCODE DV
etc.

When I am done with the project I then delete the media I wont need to backup. Then I connect my backup drive. I have a folder named X:/AVID BACKUP/MEDIA and a folder named X:/AVID BACKUP/PROJECTS. I then just move the folder containing the media to backup to the MEDIA folder and then the project to the PROJECTS folder.

DONE.

In a perfect world I move the backup to two discs or have them in a raid system.

How do YOU do it?
Do you have a workflow that is better than mine?

Best regards,
Martin
