I have 3 320GB WD external HDDs.
I also have a internal 500 GB HDD.
I am running low on storage with just under 100 GB free.
So my question is this, should I go internal or external? My computer case have slots for 3 or 4 HDDs so that's not a problem. The question is, how do I connect it? just plug it into any Sata port? Will I need to format it or install some software? Or, will it just be like a flash memory stick (Plug and play)?
Also, is one system better than another? It's mainly for videos and photos. I will only need to access it from time to time. My external HDDs are always off unless I need a file from them.
