Least you can have external hard drives at launch unlike another console...

I'll pick a higher speed internal any day of the week. if you put games on an external drive, it would take FOREVER to load.  You also can't with either console...

But its USB 3.0? Usb 3.0 speeds can reach upto 5 Gbps vs Sata can reach upto 6Gbps so the difference should be minimal since mechincal drives cant even get close to the transfer speeds of either of those

First of all, I'm pretty sure that the xbone uses sata II, which would be 3gb/s. Second, it's not that simple. A lot of SSD/HDD's have a higher data transfer rate in SATA III than SATAII. Also, I'm pretty sure the xbox one doesn't even support external drives yet either. And I'm pretty sure external drives can only store music and movies. So yeah, I'd rather be able to replace my HDD, which MS was to lazy to do with the xbone. 

Well... if the wiiU can let u store games on external hard drives upto 2 TB per hard drive... I am sure MS will let you and there are plenty of sites says that they will... And I highly doubt MS is using Sata 2 of all things considering that was released around 2003 and literily no motherboards even make sata 2 anymore... And I am well awear of the overhead of USB but I am also aware that USB 3.0 can achieve quite fast speeds... I get 90 MB/s on my western Digital external hard drive which is usb 3.0... Internal is better but external isn't so bad either... But with that being said... Since its not avaliable yet, Ps4 has the advantage

I do prefer external if its usb 3.0... Internal you can have upto 4 terabytes of space (if your lucky) but external, you can basically have 12TB of space no problem... And you don't have to really worry about replacing hard drives or etc...
