Hi!
I'm one of these people that like to have a full copy of my iCloud photo library on my Mac! However my library is so big now and I'm looking at buying a separate external SSD and moving my iCloud Photo Library onto this by following Apple's process.
https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201517
Seems easy enough I'm just very concerned about data loss and causing any issues with my library. I'll take backups but i'm wondering in practice if anyone else is doing this and how they have found it?
I also plan to use a 2.5 SSD and put in a good quality caddy to give me some flexibility on the drive. Interested to know if people are doing the same or if people are using pre-made external drives such as the Samsung T drive etc?
Welcome anyones thoughts and experience!
