Hey Gang. I'm optimizing my system here and I hear its a solid idea to keep PT and Plug Ins native on your system while using an external drive for your Read/Write.

It seems to me that there would be some sort of latency issue with this, anyone want to weigh in?

my system is a 2011 iMac OSX 10.8.1, 3.1 GHz i5 with 8 GB of RAM and a Radeon HD 6xxx series with a Gig on it.

My Macbook Pro is the 2012 version (non retina) with higher end hardware than the iMac.
