How do I point references at a new drive? #1

I have all my photo masters on an external drive (‘G Drive mini’). This drive contains *only* my Aperture Referenced Masters (~350GB of them). I recently bought a new SSD drive (‘Oyen Shadow’) & copied all the images to it. I’ve checked (Get Info & rsync) and all the files are now on the new drive. I’ve now disconnected the old drive.

I’ve gone into Aperture > File > Locate Referenced Files and most references are now pointing at the new drive.

But the old drive is still showing up twice as an ‘offline’ drive, accounting for 19,000 & 482 (respectively) masters. I want to point these references at the new drive, or at least ‘forget’ the old drive so that the references become invalid & I can ‘fix’ them by repointing at the new drive.

If I click ‘show only files not found’ there are no files listed

 

Am I making sense & can anyone help? :-)

I’m trying to insert an image, which will make things clearer, but that doesn’t seem to work?
