[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1941159, member: 204485"] In the long run having everything on your iMac is best. Then your Time Machine backup backs up everything. But, I agree with Ian, if your photos are valuable to you I wouldn't risk having all of them only on one external HD but you could have two. Two external HD's for your photos would minimise the risk but be harder to manage. Personally, I have all my photos on my Mac. I have a TM backup, a Carbon Copy Clone plus I backup my Photo Library to iCloud. [/QUOTE]
