Now that the dust is well and truly settled on the M1Pro Macbook Pros - what's the general consensus now on whether it's better to sink money into RAM or SSD capacity? I've aware of the Max Tech videos which point towards SSD and relying on virtual memory to pick up the space, but that doesn't seem to have been backed up by any other source.
I'm a graphic designer looking to upgrade from an 8yo iMac. My eye is on the base model 14" (8 core CPU) with either 16GB RAM and a 2TB SSD, or 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD. It would certainly be nice to have the extra storage and never have to worry about external drives, and having plenty of scratch disk available is handy, but do wonder whether the extra RAM is more beneficial.
Primary use is Illustrator/InDesign/Photoshop, but I also make a fair bit of use of Lightroom CC and increasingly dipping into After Effects for motion graphics. How are people with similar use cases finding it?
