I have Lightroom installed on my 1TB Fusion drive of my 2019 iMac. However I have kept my Catalogue, Photographs and Cache on a USB C connected Lacie SSD drive.
Now I am going to make a change to my system layout. I am going to set up the machine to boot from a Thunderbolt connected PCie SSD drive for performance reasons. I am going to do this using a backup from Time Machine.
So I want to move my Catalogue, Photographs and Cache back onto the boot drive. I believe there is a blank LR Catalog still on the original drive. Once the new drive is up and running would it be feasible to just open the original blank catalogue in LR and import my main catalogue off the Lacie drive. If this would work would it keep the original directory structure? The end result is to have all components of Lightroom residing on my new Thunderbolt SSD.
Or is there some other easier method?
