If you don't already have an Avid MediaFiles folder on the target drive, simply copy the entire folder over from the source drive and then delete the database files (.pmr and .mmob) from each numerical folder inside the MXF folder inside the Avid MediaFiles folder so that the database will rebuild at the "Initializing Media Streams Manager" stage of the launch. And here are the ground rules for media folder management:

1) The "Avid MediaFiles" folder (for MXF media) and the "OMFI MediaFiles" folder (for OMF media) MUST reside at the root level of the media drive, not inside any other folders or the system will not be able to find the media.

2) The folder names must always be the factory default names listed above (minus the quotes) or the system will not be able to find the media.

3) There can be only one of each folder type on any given media drive.
