Larry,
There's no reason why you shouldn't keep your media in OneDrive once
you've worked out where the folders are on your computer. You will need
to tell OneDrive that you want offline access on the folder(s) with the
media.
I keep my media in Dropbox which I find easier to use as it
automatically gives you online and offline access.

Your thought of putting them on a removeable drive is a bad one. You'd
have to have the removeable drive always attached to your computer when
using Legacy as Legacy just links to the media.

With photos, you need to keep an archive copy but the copy attached to
Legacy can be
a smaller copy - less than screen size is fine. With documents you may
need the full size but not with photos. The only exception is a photo
you may want to use as a cover photo for a report and that can be
attached from elsewhere on your computer anyway.
