How large should an aperture referenced library be?
Hi everyone-
We run Aperture with a referenced library with all masters on an external HDD. Our aperture library has 140k files (only 1200 videos and most are fairly short) and is over 200gb. This feels really large given all masters are on an external disk. I double checked to confirm they all are referenced. The three questions I have are:
+ Is 200gb for a referenced library of 140k files about right?
+ If I decided to move some of the entire library, including referenced images, to an external HDD so no part of them are on the computer at all, what's the best way to do this?
+ Are there any good cloud options for Aperture?
Thanks!
