External Thunderbolt HDD: Time Machine/iTunes/General?
I was thinking of treating myself to an external HDD for one of the many uses I need extra space for when it dawned on me that I could use one to do it all. Thunderbolt is a very capable technology, I would like to know though of it can handle having a 2TB iTunes library running through it, with 1TB dedicated to Time Machine and the final 1TB to house an Aperture Library backup?
All running to and from the same external Thunderbolt connected HDD.
Obviously Time Machine would have the greatest demand, generally followed by iTunes, but only rarely would I not want access to Aperture for 48hrs to backup the vault, could a single Thunderbolt connection deal with all of this reliably?
HDD: LaCie 4TB
