[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1918595, member: 307555"] I have a [URL='https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07YD5TK4F/?tag=macforums0e4-20']Crucial X8 1TB SSD[/URL] and a [URL='https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XL6BMFP/?tag=macforums0e4-20']Sabrent Rocket Nano 1TB SSD[/URL] both are externals. The Sabrent gets very warm if I am using it a lot. The Crucial does not get near as warm. I use the Crucial to do the heavy lifting and the Sabrent to hold media materials. Spinners work great for storage but depending on how complex your videos get they can slow down the workflow. I have actually had special effects that would not show on my timelines as the spinner disk could not feed the file fast enough. That does not happen with the SSD's. If you are doing simple small projects then a 7200 rpm spinner will work fine. Lisa [/QUOTE]
