I use Lightroom Classic on a Mac. I've used the same external hard drive for too long - about 3 years - and need to start using a new HD. How do I set up the new HD so that LRC saves my images as well as the catalog to the external HD? Thanks in advance for advice!
New images can be written to the new external HD via changing the settings in the Destination Panel of the Import Dialog.
You can copy (not move) the existing images to the new external HD via these instructions (see Part 2 — Updating Folder Location).
The catalog is best located on an internal drive, but if you really want to move it to the new external drive, use your operating system to copy it to the new external drive.
