How can I optimize Final Cut Pro for 6K 60fps video editing?

Has anyone had experienced with 6K and 60 frames per second. I have the Mavic 4 pro on order and people have reported problems with an M2 MacBook Pro with extremely long import time.

I use DJI drones, and I can tell you first hand, DJI does something proprietary with their H.264 files that is occasionally wonky. When I use DJI video files, I always use Handbreak to transcode them to solid, industry standard H.264 files first. It's a DJI issue. As the post joema links to states, other NLEs have the same issues with DJI files.
