Hello all! I am buying the 2012 Macbook Air this weekend (maybe??? Still deciding if I should wait for the refresh, which has led to countless hours scouring Mac forums).
Anyway, I am going for the 8GB RAM and 128GB SSD. Even the 256GB SSD won't be enough, so I'm going for the smaller SSD and will use an external hard drive to store the majority of my files such as music, documents, pictures, etc.
Is this a good idea?
Should I have two separate HDs, one for backing up what little files I'll have on my Mac, and one for the majority of my files? Or will one suffice?
I will be primarily using the MBA as a consumer.. light web browsing, grad school coursework, downloading and playing music, etc.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.
