Running Logic Pro X Projects From External Hard Drive

What's up everyone, thanks for the replies.

It's interesting how the responses I'm getting are so negative it's almost like having an older Mac is a sin.

You guys would probably be surprised to know that after running projects from the external hard drive Logic works as good as new. I don't get any messages and there's no glitches or anything it works like I've always known it to work. Once I realized it was working fine I started trying to catch up on work I was behind on because it was giving me problems but then I remembered JotaGi said to report my findings that's why it took me so long to update. So for anyone out there getting disk too busy or system overload messages consider giving this a try it worked for me.

And in case you guys are wondering why I'm using an older Mac it's simply because I have things connected in a way that I understand and it works for my circumstances.

Thanks again for the replies, I'm just glad it works now.

Hey, thanks for replying.

If it was a matter of the HD failing, wouldn't there be problems all around? The only issue I'm having at all is the disk too slow or system overload message that I get in Logic, every other software or device I use works like usual.

There's lots of posts and videos on the internet of people with even the latest and most up to date products who still get those messages so I don't really think it's a matter of the HD failing unless that's exactly what those messages mean.

I'm going to try running a project and see how it goes.

Thanks again,
