Hi all!
I was wondering... I have a iMac 27in 3 TB fusion drive and an external 3TB Porche LaCie backup.
I would like to know the way to manage the pictures...
Back in the days, when I had my PC(Windows), I was importing my pictures from the SD card to a folder in the C:\ drive.
Now I use Aperture to import my pictures. If I understand properly, when I import them in Aperture, they go in "Aperture Library" in images. This is a database with all my pictures from Aperture (projects, etc - JPG and NEF files).
I just configured my LaCie Porche 3TB to be TimeMachining my iMac.
You can correct me or give me better advice on what I've said.
My main question is, all the other folders of pictures I have in my Finder, should I import them to Aperture to projects and then delete that folder of pictures in my finder since they are now already in the "Aperture Library" and it will be doing a backup to my TimeMachine LaCie?
Thank you for correcting me, guiding me to a better solution!
Thanks!
