I have come to a point where I only have 20% hard drive space left on the hard drive that came with my computer. I do have pics, music, and about three games installed on it. I mam looking into a new hard drive, either external or internal. I feel if it came to it I should have no trouble installing an internal one so that's not an issue. But if I use an external one can I load my games on it and have work. I only really see usb external ones. So will that have issues? Should I use that just for store of the music and pics, and documents? Any suggestions please?
External drives are much, much, much slower than internal ones. An external one is fine for small files, backups, work and such, but they aren't good at all for e.g installing programs on.
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
This may sound dum but the internal one I looked at has a transfer rate of 300 MBps (external). and the external one 480 Mbps. what is the difference in MBps and mbps?
mega bits and mega bytes, one byte = 8 bits
thanks I will be going with an internal one I really want to have a place to install programs on. Thnaks for the help guys.
