- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
Okay so my single hard drive was getting bogged down so I ran out today and bought 2 2TB hard drives I'm going to move all the photos off of my main drive onto 1 of the new hard drives and then copy that over to the 2nd drive so I have two copies of everything photo wise in two separate hard drives (I also have a pair of external hard drives I rotate out with backups as well).
My question is, If I just move the photos over, will lightroom be able to find the files since they have moved. Do I need to move them entirely thru lightroom, or can I move them. then pull into that folder and resynch? I have them cataloged, keyworded etc. and just worried I wont be able to find anything if I just move them thru explorer.
