[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1842690, member: 396914"] No space savings, but I like having my images in Photos so I can sort, arrange, search and edit. I think all that can be done leaving the images on the drive out of Photos, just referring to them, so it's really entirely up to you. If you decide to copy the images into Photos, once you know they are there you should delete the separate files and folders because you don't need two copies taking up drive space. Just make sure you have a backup of the database in Photos so that if something happens you have all your pictures safe. [/QUOTE]
