The latest version of Pro Tools and MacOS should be fine, however you will need to check Avid’s compatibility list to see if your Project Mix is still supported. Regarding Hard drive size, Well if you want to keep everything on an internal hard drive, get the biggest one you can. However I’d suggest you max out the ram if you can and get and external HD or two if the internal Drive gets too pricey. If you already plan to store all your recordings and samples and etc on external hard drives you could probably get away with as little as a 256GB internal drive.
