    Nice video! Big question, why crucial on amazon it says "internal ssd" meanwhile in your video is "external" ? if crucial ssd is internal which means we need to install inside the mac os right? but your title is external ssd. is that really works if i buy crucial internal ssd and connect to my mac with usb c cable?

      @JBehrMusic  4 года назад +1

      I definitely hear what you're saying, and this helped me a lot in that area. If you can't afford an external SSD, you could also do a batch resave on all your kontakt libraries, but you would need to do each one individually.

      J. Behr i just went ahead and purchase what you had. I actually went ahead with the 2 TB. I was actually about to pull the trigger on getting a ssd installed in my imac until I ran across your video. I didn’t know they had a external ssd. I opt out of paying for someone to come and install what I just purchased after watching you video. Looks fairly simple.

    • @JBehrMusic

    hello thanks for this video ! do you think it’s possible to install kickstart, eq or others plugin with no librairies to an external ssd ?

    • @JBehrMusic
      @JBehrMusic  3 года назад

      I don't think that's possible. Most (if not all) plugins require the installation to be on your main hard drive (internally). But many of those plugins (kickstart, eqs, etc.) are fairly small in size anyways, so it's probably not too beneficial to install them to an external ssd.

      Ableton and FL Studio aren’t VSTs, they are DAWs. You typically want those installed on your main internal hard drive.

    • @JBehrMusic
      @JBehrMusic  3 года назад

      That's a bit strange. I've personally never owned an iMac before, only a macbook and now mac mini. I don't know if that's normal for the fan to kick in on something like browser navigation. I'd assume not though.

    Hello Is there an enclosure for Thunderbolt somewhere:)Canada

    • @JBehrMusic
      @JBehrMusic  4 года назад

      Yes but they are significantly more expensive, since you'll need an NVME M.2 drive instead of a regular SSD within the enclosure. Something like this would be what you're looking for: www.amazon.ca/Thunderbolt-Enclosure-WAVLINK-Aluminum-Design-Included/dp/B07YB4DDRB/
      As an example, manufacturers like Samsung sell portable NVME Thunderbolt 3 drives, such as this one: www.amazon.ca/SSD-portable-Samsung-X5-Thunderbolt/dp/B07GBGG68L/

    • @JBehrMusic

      I don't think applications and/or plugins are capable of being installed on external drives. I believe they need to be installed on your main/primary hard drive.

      J. Behr That’s what I’ve always heard. But even with all my sound libraries and projects on an external, I’m running out of room. I installed the entire Waves Platinum bundle and I started getting the dreaded pop up occasionally

    • @JBehrMusic
      @JBehrMusic  3 года назад

      CRASS2047 yeah, it’s kind of annoying that many of these plug-in bundles take up so much room. What’s your main hard drive size? I got a 256GB for my main drive and still have plenty of room.

    • @CRASS2047
      @CRASS2047 3 года назад

      J. Behr I have a late 2013 imac with the i7 processor and the original 1tb fusion drive was removed and a 256 gb ssd was installed. And the ram is maxed out at 32 I believe. Usually it can handle anything as long as I don’t try to add too many plugins during playback. As long as I remember to stop playback, I used to NEVER get the popup.

      Really overpriced IMO, since it's like $350 right? You can buy a Sabrent 1TB Rocket NVMe for $130, and then buy an OWC Envoy Express for $80. Save around $140 if you buy the parts separately. I'll paste some links. SSD: www.amazon.com/Sabrent-Rocket-Internal-Performance-SB-ROCKET-1TB/dp/B07LGF54XR/ --- Enclosure: eshop.macsales.com/shop/envoy-express/thunderbolt-3

      You could save even more if you want to go with the Sabrent Q instead, which is slightly slower speeds, but not by much. Link here: www.amazon.com/Sabrent-Rocket-Internal-Performance-SB-RKTQ-1TB/dp/B07ZZYWTBP/
