I would like to know if I can uncheck the option for Storing a Copy of All Smart Previews Locally in the Local Storage options menu in Lightroom and what implications, if any, this may cause. I do not wish to use Smart Previews at all hence why I have moved away from Lightroom Classic. I only wish to work with original RAW images on my Macbook, iPad and iPhone. I have already selected Store a Copy of All Originals on my MacBook HD so presumably this is all I need for faster local editing on my MacBook?
Also, why has Lightroom created a random folder called 298c618d2b6048cf8cd87a8da84694ed under Lightroom Saved Photos > Lightroom CC, inside of which are folders original > year > individual folders for each day, which contain my photos. Can someone explain the logic behind the naming of this sub folder as it seems a bit superfluous and random. I did not tell Lightroom to create this folder.
Many thanks.
