Hi,
We are a sound studio, and we are about to buy 2 Mac Studio. I'm struggling between 2 options on how to store our data.
Currently, I'm using the latest intel mini with an external SSD to work on my protools sessions. That drive is the OWC TB3 drive which I love, but there are some downsides:
My question is, is there any downfall of buying the Studio with a bigger internal SSD and just resizing the partition? Doing 1 for the system and 1 for the works?
We need it separately because not just 1 person/account needs to access these files. We are switching places/rooms/macs quite often, sometimes we land our places, or others work on our project on our machines. So separated accounts are needed, but all of them need to see the same "work" SSD/partition.

- external, easy to move. Harder to protect from stealing.
- It's fast, but the internal SSD in the Studio is faster.
- Almost the same price as the internal SSD upgrade.
