im not a fan of external. the advantage is that they are cheaper. thats fine, sure.but usb or firewire are slower then sata/point
I have a completly pointless 600g external hard drive with about 150 pictures on it...I really wouldn't care if it breaks.Though I may start using it in the next few month's as my computer is running out of space. :P
a 1tb internal is the same size as any internal HD. fits, sata use.a 1tb external is a loving 8x4 inch atm machine. and depending on brand, some of them have a lame power cord
