I'm in the process of purchasing an new MacBook Air, 128 GB. It has an SSD, rather than a regular hard drive. What I'm wondering is how this computer will be for managing and editing photos. I also realize that 128GB isn't a very large drive, so I will, no doubt be forced to keep the ones I want to do something with and load everything onto an external HD or thumb drives. I'd use SD cards, but large capacity ones are pretty expensive. Any advice on this particular computer?
I ran out of room on my Time Capsule for my Time Machine backups, so earlier today I purchased a Seagate Slim 2TB at Best Buy for $129. It's USB 3.0 and is a lot faster than wi-fi backups to the Time Capsule. It's working great and I'm sure it would be just what you need for your MacBook Air.
