Download LR without downloading raw files

Is it possible to download LR without downloading all of my RAW files locally? I'm switching computers and I don't want to fill my new one with 80GB of RAW images which are on the Cloud anyway.

 

It's taking for ever to transfer that much data on my currant internet connection and I'd love to start using the progamme and download the individual files as and when needed.

 

Thanks 🙂

Check the 'Preference - Local Storage' settings. You can specify how much cache Lightroom can use, and you can uncheck the option to store copies locally.
