I bought this to use with my MacBook Air as the SSD inside it is relatively small (128GB). I use it with to store my Lightroom catalogue and it has definitely sped up the photo editing process.
Definitely recommend this, especially at the bargain price that Amazon were selling it at.
Would be useful for photographers on the move and when the internal drive is filling up.
