Q: iPhotos vs. Photos

This is a two part question:

 

#1  I am running a 2007 iMac with Yosemite 10.10.5.  I prefer iPhotos to the newer Photos program.  I find it much easier to create new albums and the organization of pics is much easier for me.   Photos is taking up 27 Gb of space.   If I delete the Photos program will the iPhoto program ever be obsolete and will I be unable to access the pics in the future?   I have over 6000 pictures on iPhoto.  

 

#2 My hard drive is 320 GB and I have 220 Gb of free space.   Would freeing up the extra 27 Gb make a big deal in the way the computer runs?   Should I just keep the Photos program and ignore it?

iMac (20-inch Mid 2007), OS X Mavericks (10.9.1), Mac user since MacintoshClassic '90
