Which would be the best match for a macBook pro macOS 10.14.6? I want to move my photo catalog to an external drive.
Asked by: Susan
I use the LaCie 5TB Rugged for LR. I have both the LR catalog and the photos on the drive. It makes it easy to access my photos from any of my MAC computers with LR installed. MacBook when traveling and iMac at home. I also regularly backup the LR catalog and photos so a dedicated backup drive. I have not noticed any speed issues with the 5TB Rugged. Its a trusted workhorse in my book!

Can I use this external hard drive to hold my 4K footage that I am editing on my iMac and Premiere Pro CC or do I HAVE to get an External Hard Drive that has faster speed???
Asked by: Erick
Sure you can use this for footage. The speed of the drive and connection will dictate how quickly the system can access the footage, but it will work just fine. I use mine for 6k Black Magic footage and it works great.
