Sandisk drives have been going through a scandal the past couple years where they've had an extremely high rate of failure yet instead of addressing it they have just aggresively been marking their storage down to look appealing to those out of the know. I encourage everyone looking for an external drive to do some research or just avoid altogether.
SanDisk was once a decent name to trust, or so I thought. Now I wouldn't go anywhere near. Truly awful.
Seagate is also another one than fails really easy
Def needed this thank you 🫶🏼
Thank you for covering this man. Definitely not the most glamorous topic, but also super helpful to understand.
Hey man- this video came at a great time as I recently got a T7 drive to run with Logic Pro X project files/3rd party sound libraries and I’m glad to see you include the Velcro tip.
I was initially hesitant but you’ve had success using yours- as in you didn’t feel there was any risk of damage to the drive.. or your MacBook depending on if you consider the adhesive damage…
Regardless, thanks man- love the chill energy as always and respect your grind here on UA-cam. -Matt
Great and simple explanation. Love it 👍
Great advice!
I just bought a Lacie HD three weeks ago. I’m using it to save my GarageBand projects. I have a MacBook Air.
So I bought one of these because I didn't quite know/understand that all the NI libraries they are hundreds of gigabytes.... then I have come into other problems - downloading a library straight into external HDD is a pain in the ass and what's the worst is that when recording something on Ableton FROM external HDD I have come across some silly issues which makes me think that I have spent lots of £££ for nothing.
Thank you for important video. Peace from Poland.
Hey Taetro, could you make a video about some music theory for composing a chord progression with a guitar? I love the guitar bassline from your videos with Dolltrick
Can you also use iCloud or Dropbox instead of external SSD’s? Can you VST’s license also sync with iCloud? Can you put samples, vst libraries and projects on iCloud and access them and use them within Logic? Do projects automatically sync on iCloud? Can you or someone give me some information?
Question, which drive do you use your Native Instruments on?
So with all the space you save on your computer from storing on your external hard drive, what do you actually save on your computer? 🤔
Plugins and your DAW. Presets within that daw.
It will also improve your DAW/general CPU performance if you still keep a decent bit of space unused on your computers SSD! Take care!!
If I have already installed everything in my computer, would I be able to easily move them (Plug-ins and samples and licenses) over to the Ssd?
It’s easy to copy files over, and change the directories. If you try to open a project you’re already working on, you may need to relocate the media, as it will be looking for them in the old location.
But going forward with this system, you won’t have to do that for new projects
@@Taetro thanks! I have the drives, just didn't have the answers of what should go in the and what should be on the computer.
