[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 443872, member: 9240"] Absolutely - just make sure that when you move photos you do it in Lightroom or the catalog won't find them. Your catalog can be comprised of images on multiple external drives. When the drive is unplugged you will still see the image preview for those photos, and if you build Smart Previews (which can take a [I]lot[/I] of space in your catalog) you can actually produce 1600px JPEGs from them and do limited LR editing without ever connecting the drive. The only reason I split catalogs is to minimize the size of my current catalog so it responds more quickly. This was a concern with LR5, but with the speed improvements in LR6/CC it may not longer be a concern. Your [/QUOTE]
