I think Undelos means an external hard drive.
Mine connects to my laptop via a USB cable.
(And requires itself to be plugged in at a socket
probably because it requires lots of power to transfer things
at decent speeds and perhaps for reliability reasons too.)
Mine is 2TB (which I thought was plenty)
but it seems it can be easy to fill up, especially when you have
movies, videos, pictures, music, games and other backups stored.
(Ok not THAT easy but you know one day you may need another drive.)
On my 500GB laptop INTERAL hard drive (the one that it came with)
it's really easy to run out of space especially when installing
lots of games or having many videos or whatever.
So I had to move most videos (including 7 Legends and other projects)
to the external hard drive to make room for installing games/software
on my laptop hard drive.
I don't know how to make a program become portable.
And also, running games on the external hard drive would be slower
according to what I've read. (Because it depends on the much slower USB
speeds vs running straight from the installed internal hard drive.)
Oh well. :/
