I am trying to setup Mac OS Photos to work from my external HDD. I'd appreciate if you share your experience doing that, and clarify these queries--
I know that I can set up Photos so it works directly from an external HDD drive. I just need to shift the Photos Library to the external. Can I set it up so it follows my own folder structure on the external? That way the base RAW/JPEG file will not be inside the Photos Library but within a folder structure of my choice on the external.
In the Photos Preferences I have unchecked “Copy items to the photos library.” When I import pictures from the camera’s SD card into Photos, I also see these sync on Photos on my iPhone. Shouldn't this NOT be happening?
Thanks!
