I am a bit confused about Final Cut Pro 10.1. In my first project I have two folders called "transcoded media" and another for "render files" that are huge.

From what I understand, "transcoded media" are the ProRes 422 files to help performance. If I archive my project, delete these, can I later re-create them if I want to edit again?

"Render files" are for effects, transitions, and other stuff. I can always delete these in the program when I don't need them. Is this right? Thanks.
 
Yes, and yes. As long as you retain the original media either within the event or externally. You can also trash the optical flow and stabilization analyzation files.

There's a great Application in the App Store called "X-Wiper" that does all this for you with a handy little graphic user interface.
