I just bought a MacBook Pro and will use it for music production when I am on the go. I am trying to match my setup so that it mirrors my desktop machine as much as possible as far as all the software and plugins are concerned.
However, for all my sample libraries I need a good portable SSD. Besides being compact, I was hoping some of you could tell me what specs are important with regards to streaming the audio off the SSD so that my projects run smoothly even with a lot going on?
Super fast write speeds are less of an issue, I am more interested in a drive that really supports my Macbook. I have read that some portable SSDs have different buffer & ram configs that allow the laptop to do less work on that end, thereby maximizing overall performance.
If anyone can point me in the right direction as to what else to look for in a good portable SSD I would really appreciate it!!
