I've been digging around for a straight answer to these questions and have not found a straight answer. But is it ok to rip DVDs straight to my external hdd drive without any issues or should they be ripped to the internal drive first and then tranferred to the external. Also, is it ok to burn an iso image (that is stored on my external hdd) straight to dvd or should the image be transferred to the internal drive first and then burned? i am using a 1tb usb external hdd.

why do you even need to ask??.. once an external drive is plugged in just use it the same as an internal one.. change the save path in the ripping application.. and expect things to be a bit slower because of the usb lag.. that's all..

don't rely on that external thing for any "vital importance to the survival of humanity" type data.. they are a software run scam using a couple of 500 gig drives usually and about as unreliable as you can get.. they last 6-9 months on average then crap out.. it's why they are dirt cheap.. no more than an internal 300 gig quality IDE drive.. ever wondered why?

There won't be any lag since no current DVD-ROM is capable of transferring data at the 30 MB/s USB 2.0 usually peaks at.
