Which option describes changing a track's destination drive by selecting the Root Media Folder?

• A. Click on the track's Root Media Folder and select a destination from the pop-up menu
• B. Right-click the track header and choose 'Change Destination'
• C. Use the Transport window to set a new drive
• D. Use the Audio Suite menu to assign a drive

Answer: (A)

Changing where Pro Tools stores a track’s audio uses the Root Media Folder. This control specifies the destination drive/folder for the media associated with that track. By clicking the track’s Root Media Folder and selecting a destination from the pop-up menu, you direct Pro Tools to route future recordings and imported clips for that track to the chosen location. This is the direct, built-in way to move a track’s media to a different drive or folder, which helps with managing disk space and performance across multiple drives. The other options don’t affect where a track’s media is stored: the Transport window handles playback and recording controls, not file storage; right-clicking the track header or using Audio Suite pertains to other functions like editing actions or processing, not changing media location.
