Randy,

Thank you for your input. I’m going to do it.

I have scads of RAM and lots of available interior drive space so I should be good.

I appreciate your help.

well people do it all the time like literally every graphics company on earth. They will be slower but with stills and proper amount of RAM with scratch disk set to internal sata drives you won't notice with stills.  but for photoshop the scratch and RAM are the thing that will keep you from noticing the the speed difference.

Hello all.

Does anyone have experience, positive and/or negative, about using docked external drives as working hard drives?

I have a Mac Pro tower with four internal bays, all taken.

I’d like to have one more external drive constantly connected to my computer for easy and fast access. I would back this up to a second drive in the dock.

I have done some investigating of drive dock stations and am curious if anyone uses them as always accessible drives? Any pros or cons I should be aware of?

Thanks so much,

Lea
