    Should I convert my external HDDs to APFS?

    I'm not worried about compatibility with Windows or older macOS. What I'm worried about is the fact that APFS is optimized for SSDs. So will APFS potentially make my HDDs unreliable or slower? What's your experience with APFS with traditional HDDs? Thanks!

    Migrating from iPhoto to... what?

    I have an iPhoto library that contains about 65,000 images. I rely heavily on iPhoto's proprietary features, and have been since I started using the first version of iPhoto when Apple released it well over a decade ago. Apple's concept of a well-designed "digital shoebox" has proven itself...
