"I have been importing old folders of pictures, and using the Standard preview... but now my Catalog Previews.lrdata database is about 40 GB. Should I be doing something differently? Can I put this catalog on an external hard drive while the normal catalog is on my computer hard drive?
Many photographers keep the Lightroom catalog on the external drive, for that drive. It is a good practice to use back up software, to back up the whole drive including the lightroom catalog.
I also use an external drive to backup just my lightroom catalogs. Sometimes it is easier to find out which drive I need to connect to the computer, because I have multiple drives.
