So I am not sure if I understand the lightrooom library correctly, and how I want to implement it into my workflow will work.
Right now i have about 8 250 gig hard drives. labeled 1a,1b, 2a,2b etc etc. A and B mirror each other.
So i'd want to make image previews of all the images on my harddrives, soo then if i get a call from a client and ask to see images from shoot "xx" i can then do a search in lightroom and see the prievewed small thumbnals and locations of which hard drive it is in. Can i do this without having the actual harddrive plugged in but just viewing through an image library. or am i missing something?
yes i know it might be useful for me to set up a RAID of some sort for my hard drives, but thats not something i want to get into right now
thanks!
