Comments welcome on how you've solved the issue of multiple computers. I'm not much of a computer guy.
I work on a MacBook Pro and Mac Studio. I have a TB4 NVME case with a Sabrent gen 4 NVME drive in it. All my current working images are on that. I can plug it into either machine, access any image and edit it seamlessly, pick up where I left on on the other machine. With that drive connected, I can’t detect any speed difference between it and having the images on my machine’s internal drive. If I run a BlackMagic Speed test, the system shows the internal I/O faster, but both are so fast I can’t see or feel any difference in use. FWIW for myself, YMMV.
