I  have an 8TB Western Digital MyBook Duo external hard drive on which I store my RAW photos, the Lightroom catalog and the photo previews generated by Lightroom. I have named this drive: "PORTFOLIO”.

On this dive, my RAW photo files are stored inside a folder I have called “Galleries”. This is my top level folder. Beneath this top level folder I have created other folders corresponding to “Years” expressed as a four digit number. The photos from an individual shoot are copied from my CF card(s) to folders inside the Year folder. These folders are named using the following convention:

08_11_Targhee_Fest         (Date and Location taken)

 
     
  Note: I also have a 13" MacBook Pro laptop that I use while I am on the road.
