Is there any way to use external memory HDD/SDD with an iPad or is it just Cloud?

With Lightroom specifically? Not really. You could export things straight to the external drive and then delete them, if you wanted to keep the iPad storage clear. Or there’s an Adobe app you can use to download your Lightroom library to an external drive attached to a PC, if it’s the backup you’re after. I don’t know how it is with all the possible photo editing apps out there, but my general experience has been that you have to import things to the iPad app and work on them locally, but you can export them wherever you want after that.

My clunky method is currently using my work MacBook, create a separate user for LRC and then storing all my pics on an external hard drive. Would happily go iPad but was worried I would clog it up as I can’t see an obvious way to backup and store.
