There was a time many many years back when external HDDs were more expensive than the internal ones. And the portable HDDs were still more expensive.
Now, an internal 1 tb HDD costs almost the same as a 1 tb external portable. Plus, the portable comes with a 3-year warranty whereas the internal comes with 1-2 years warranty. And the added portability is always a convenience.
Was wondering if it would be a good idea to just have an SSD internal for OS and have an external portable connected to it all the time. Any downsides?
