I have a "docking station" that lets me use one thunderbolt port and the power port to create a modular desktop system with external monitor, keyboard, and storage. So basically I have a standard desktop, except that my machine can also be unplugged and used standalone on location. My understanding is that if you are using spin drives for storage, USB3 is faster than than the drives. I am running a 2 TB RAID1 with spin drives for working files and daily storage, and hot swap external spin drives for archive storage. I keep my LR library and presets, etc on an SSD. I also create smart previews, so I can work without being attached to the spin drives. I love it, but YMMV.
