    Hi there! I have a tough decision to make. Looking to replace my old iMac from late 2013 and I really love the Macbook pro-2018 model, not the previous models. The only reason I'm afraid of buying this one because of possible flex-gate issues even after a silent fix from Apple extending the...

    256GB/512GB?

    I mainly use my MacBook Pro atm for editing with an external drive, would you say that a 256GB with a 2TB external drive would suffice for my editing needs on a 27-inch iMac 5k retina? Or would you say that playing it safe and spending more money on the 512GB would be worth it??
