Hello PS Gurus,
I’m a digital artist and I use PS on a Mac Pro 6.1. These are the current specs:
3.5 Ghz 6-core Xeon E5
64 GB 1866 MHz DDR3
AMD FirePro D300
500 GB SSD
All this time I’ve been using my internal disk as a boot disk, for file storage and as a scratch disk. Not wise, I know! My work has become more demanding lately, working with 10GB PSB images, often dealing with more than 200 layers. I’ve already ordered a 1TB internal SSD to keep my files and I’m looking for a fast (~1200mb/sec r/w) external drive to use it as a scratch disk. So, I have a couple of questions:
Thank you in advance!

- Is there a fast enough external drive out there that I could use with my MP 6..1?
- What do you guys use as scratch disk?
Thank you in advance!
