Hello Everyone.

I have 512 GB  SSD C Drive, and I have at Least 400 GB of Free Space. I noticed Inside the Media & Disk Cache, the Maximum Disk Cache Size Is: 47 GB., Should I change that ?

Thanks.

    It all depends on how frequently you want to purge your caches.  I don't have much room on my cache drive, so I purge a lot.

    Dear Dave.

    I have another question please. Inside Preferences-Memory: I noticed RAM reserved for other applications is 6 GB, and RAM available for After Effects Is Is 25.9 GB of Ram. Is that Ok. In other word, when I am working With After Effects, I want the Maximum RAM to be used. Do I need to change It on other places ?

    Thanks.

    That's about right.  You can't use ALL your memory for AE -- you need RAM to keep the operating system running, plus any other open applications.

    If anything, I would increase the amount of memory for other applications to 8-9 gigs.
