Really? Externals are cheaper, and when you buy a 1TB internal you have 1TB of space. When you buy a 1 TB external you have 1.5TB of space (1.3) without ever losing the things you have on the internal. |
externals have never been cheaper. That should be understood immediately. Why? Added costs. Plastic shell, USB connectors, royalties for using usb.
Aside from some crazy deal that maybe happens once in a while, on the whole, internals are cheaper for this exact reason. An extrenal is an internal with added parts. They are literally the same drive. If you were to open up an external, you would find an internal behind the plastic and wiring.
