For sure. I don’t do much video work these days, and when I do, a chunk of it can just be done on my phone… (tech these days!). Largest assets I work with are very short fashion shoot videos & large PhotoShop docs.
I will definitely move my Scriv files out of DropBox.
I ordered the MBP this morning and opted for 64 GB of memory and a 2 T SSD plus the annual extended warranty.

Good move if not needed. Otherwise, have used it for years with no problems to sync my two Macs and two iOS devices.
I don’t need it as I only use Scrivner on one device.

@Orpheus with 64gb you will be able to run a heavily quaternized version of llama 3.1 70B or other similar sized models. Lmstudio has the MLX engine designed for apple silicon.

Glad to see you got the 2TB drive.
Another thing I dont think was mentioned earlier. The way mac OS operates - if for some reason memory becomes an issue (not that it will with 64GB) it will use part of the harddrive as temp swap memory. The smaller the drive - the less space to do this. Also there is a speed difference between the smaller and bigger drive. So enjoy your new machine. I assume it is the M4 (but any of them are great).
Yes it is the M4 Max the faster version.
