You don't need to isolate LR to its own drive, leave the program on
your main drive but start a catalog from your external drive. You can
have many catalogs and ne'er the twain need meet.
When you start a new catalog you want to be sure to place it in the
external drive, too, rather than the default location which is usually
your pictures folder.
All that being said, I have multiple catalogs and wish I didn't. Your
images may be more conducive to multiple catalogs than mine are, though.

LightRoom pros,
I would like to run LightRoom program by it self from 1TB hard drive.
I want to store all new digital files in the LR cataloging and work
flow
scheme away from all previous digital image files.
Is this a good idea or even possible?
Thanks,
