Hi I'm shopping for a new laptop for video editing purposes.
I assume I'll be on Windows 10 and editing with Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2015 and/or After Effects.
Initially I set out to find a laptop with at least one port for USB 3.1 type-C (gen 2, or whatever you call the type that transfers 10 gb/s.
I'm having a hard time finding a laptop that has all the specs I'm looking for, so I'm wondering is it worth giving up on the USB 3.1 type-C port?
Do I really need that extra speed, if I'm editing with the footage and all media files stored on an external USB drive?
So far I've been editing with a USB 3 port and before that I actually used USB 2. Editing went generally fine. So I'm wondering how beneficial the new and fast USB 3.1 type C connection could improve my editing experience. And maybe it would be wise for me to drop the new USB port and by that way expanding the selection of laptops I can choose from.
Thanks!
