Hi everyone.
Hoping to get some thoughts around setting up my machine for recording and programming in Logic Pro X.
I have a iMac 27" from late 2015 and I have an external thunderbolt hard drive where I am planning to install all the libraries, samples etc.
Here's my question:
Is there any performance advantage to installing everything - including the OS - on that external drive?
I have heard some folks say that making an independent, external, bootable system that is dedicated to music only is the way to go and as I am setting this up from scratch, I wanted to consider this before going through the whole install process.
To my mind, I'm not sure that there will be much of a performance advantage but, not being a computer expert by any stretch of the imagination, I thought I would get your thoughts before proceeding.
Any thoughts/advice on this?
Thanks in advance.
