BuyDig has a couple of different storage solutions combined with Adobe editing software today. These deals come at a particularly interesting time for hobbyist photographers with Apple consolidating iPhoto and Aperture into one solution. This new app, set to debut in the spring appears to lack many power user features and potentially puts users in tough spot when it comes to storage. If you’re not quite on board with Apple’s new Photos app, these deals offer a solution at a discounted rate for the software alone, not to mention the storage. All software in today’s deal comes as a physical copy for both Mac OS X and Windows. Note: all final prices are reflected at checkout.

First up is the 2TB WD Elements Ultra USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive + Adobe Lightroom 5 for $99.99 shipped. This is a $230+ value as the hard drive typically retails for $85 or more with Lightroom 5 coming in at $149. This portable hard drive solution is rated 4.6/5 stars at Amazon, it features USB 3.0, automated cloud backup capabilities and a one-year warranty.

Next, BuyDig has the 2TB WD Digital My Passport Ultra USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive + Adobe Lightroom 5 for $109.99 shipped, also available via eBay. This hard drive goes for $98 at Amazon, bring the total value of this package to over $250. The highly-rated WD Digital My Passport has USB 3.0 connectivity, automated cloud backup and a three-year warranty.

For the videographers out there, BuyDig also offers the same 2TB WD My Passport Portable Hard Drive + Adobe Photoshop Premiere Elements 12 for $109.99 shippedalso available via eBay.

    I thought Adobe software was “subscription”-based only–is that not the case here? (Once purchased, is it mine to keep/use indefinitely, or are there yearly renewal fees?

      In this instance, Lightroom is available as a CC subscription as you noted but also as a stand alone license. Details can be found here: http://bit.ly/1DF1xzA

    Ah, didn’t realize you had to add to cart to see the discount. My bad.
