[QUOTE="IvanB, post: 643821, member: 43412"] sounds like good advice, especially since I don't need to jump right away. I am a Lightroom CC user, and this change comes as I was gearing up to do a better/more organized job of backing up photos. My plan was to put all images on an external hard drive along with catalog backups. Copy this to another external drive as a backup, and then weekly copy also to a 3rd external drive for off site backup. Quit frankly, I wonder how well I can keep this organized. My laptop hard drive capacity is requiring, I make some changes and rather than keeping just some of the images on laptop, I thought it best to have them all in one spot. Less confusing. I'm not sure where my offsite location would be either. Sounds like going to the New Lightroom CC would solve the storage issue. However, I'm retired and a lot of the images I have are family oriented. I would like to preserve them for family should something happen to me. I'm wondering how accessible they would be for family members, who are not up on light room? Any thoughts/ideas/suggestions are welcome. Except for storage, I like the sounds of Classic version.
