Is Thunderbolt fast enough to run all LR5 data from a 7200 rpm external HHD??

Hi,
I was wondering if Thunderbolt was fast enough to run all LR5 data ( LRCAT, Previews and RAW files ) from a 7200 rpm external HHD or do I need to go with a Thunderbolt 2 setup??  RAW files no greater than 80mb.

I am concerned with speed round-tripping between PS and LR and creating prviews and saving files.  I will be using a 4 core nMacPro 3.7Ghz and while it is capable of using TB2 which is twice as fast it is almost twice as expnesive.  I am purchaing a CalDigit T3 external TB RAID box.
These items in Lightroom (creating previews, rending photos to export or send to photoshop) are largely dependent on CPU speed, the disk speed is such a small portion of the total time involved that its probably irrelevant and you'd never notice the difference between fast drives and slow drives. I can't speak about Photoshop, but you know what, none of this addresses the issue of what is "fast" to you and what is not fast to you, and in fact I doubt such a thing can adequately covered in a forum anyway.

  • When I add pictures into MUSE , do the pictures resize for web quality (And so the page loads fast enough) or do I have to do this using an external software like photoshop, etc. ? Thank You

    Also is there any way I can change the contact form email for all of my contact forms at once.
    I have over 100 contact forms and i want to make them reach the same email anyway I can do that without going one by one?

    If you have placed the image in Muse using File > Place and then scaled the image down in Muse while editing, then Muse publishes/exports the scaled down/optimized image in final output. When using as a Fill, the output size depends on the Fitting option you setup in the Fill options.
    As for the contact form email, you would need to specify the email address for each form individually. There is no workflow to edit the same for multiple forms at a time.

  • How to move all app data from one user to another? (One mac)

    Hi. I've been having this problem for a while. So recently, I've made a new account for myself, since I was using my mom's user account. I don't want to keep all of my files, emails, and icloud on her user, since it's used by everyone in my family. I use iMail now because hotmail blocked my email because "Someone hacked me" and they kept it locked for all these months, and I can't give enough proof to show it was mine, since I forgot every email I've sent now.
    And iMail is pretty cool, adding your own rules and stuff. Except you don't need a password to log in. I just deactivate my iMail via system preferences as a log-out, and then re-activate it as a log-in.
    So, back to the question.
    How can I move ALL app data from my mom's user account to my new one? Her acount also has pictures of our germany vacation. So not every file.
    You see, I game on my mac mostly because steam is really complicated, using internet just to play a game that doesn't need internet and stuff.
    And steam doesn't have a lot of casual games.
    So I want to move my game data, save files and every little piece of application info that my games have on my mom's account to mine. I've asked this question on Yahoo answers, and all I got was an answer of "File IS data, or datum itself, You are wrong. I cannot give you an answer." -.-
    I'm not experienced with terminal either, so I'll need a ton of explanation of how to use it if that's how it can be done. It really really confuses me and I'll just give up.
    Thanks in advance.

  • How do I duplicate all my data from my existing Macbook to a new Macbook that I purchased last night?

    How do I duplicate all my data from my existing Macbook to a new Macbook?

    Easiest way is to connect them together and use Migration Assistant (which comes with all Macs).
    To connect them, use one of the following:
    ethernet cable
    firewire cable
    Apple Thunderbolt-Firewire Adapter + firewire cable (if your new Mac has Thunderbolt but your old Mac has FireWire)
    thunderbolt cable (if both Macs have Thunderbolt)
    network (wired or wireless)
    Do not use a USB cable!

  • How do I transfer all my data from my original iPad 1 to my new iPad Air?

    How do I transfer all my data from my original iPad 1 to my new iPad Air?

    Do a full sync and backup of your one. I use iTunes for all my backing up. Then unplug the one and plug in the Air. Go through the setup process and when you have the choice to 'set up as new or restore from backup' chooose the the restore and your air will be a near clone of your One. You will need to reset up wifi and website passwords, but the data should be there.
    Once you are sure the Air has all you need on it, you can go into the settings and 'erase all content and settings' which puts your One back to the 'out of box' state to you can sell it if you want.

    Back up your old one. I use and prefer iTunes, but back up all the data, etc.
    Then unplug it. Plug your new one in and go through the setup steps. When you see the option to set up as new or restore from the backup you just made, choose that and your new iPad will be a near clone of the old one.
