Hi,

I’ve bought a mid 2011 mac mini 2.7 GHz I7 with 16 GB of RAM & a 250 SSD & 750 HDD.

I’m wanting to use it to keep all of my photos & videos. The max resolution of my videos will be 1080.

I plan to put all of my photos & videos onto the 750 HDD & then when I am editing videos to copy them across to the 250 SSD, does this sound the best option?

To try this out I’ve copied some photos onto the 750 HDD to see how well this works & I am getting the ‘spinning beach ball’ as I try to swipe through the photos & have to wait a second. The photos are no bigger than 3mb, is this normal?

Is there a better way of me doing this? I have imported the photos straight into a photos library on the 750 HDD.

Thanks in advance

Cheers
Paul
