Hello there. I've been using a PC for my DAW. I have two internal drives (one for Windows + DAW software, the other for audio library). I just bought a new fancy shmancy 15" Mac retina laptop that blows the pants off of my PC (in terms of hardware specs), but I'm limited to a single internal 256GB SSD. Obviously that's not a lot of space to do everything on, and I also would rather avoid tons of writes to the drive. So I'm curious, if I were to buy an external drive for recording onto, is USB 3.0 fast enough to avoid bottlenecks? Anyone have any pointers, or should I stick with the PC desktop setup? I only record once every month or two, and it would be nice to retire the desktop to my closet. Thanks!
