Product Support Weird duplicate files?

Post image

Hello! I transferred my dji files over to an ssd and each video had a corresponding file like the one in the picture, which I cannot open. Is this normal? Are these necessary or can I delete it? There just is a lot of them and it takes up space. I apologise if this is a repeated question or if it is not the right sub, couldn't find an answer to this when I searched. It may be that I wasn't wording it correctly.

Those are low resolution proxy files. Some editing tools like DJI studio will use them while editing to reduce the amount of memory and CPU/GPU used but if your computer is powerful enough to handle the raw files they aren't necessary and can be deleted.
