Really? cause I never had problems with and external drive, nor have I heard of it being unstable. Is this personal experience?

Ive read alot about externals not being able to play more games than interanl and about skipping and laggy games. This is just what ive read not personal experience, so who knows. Maybe those were just trolls writing that. lolol!

Question, I have a seagate external that i ripped apart to expose just the hd and now i use a sata to usb adaptor since hard drive is sata to connect to my pc. Can i use this hd with the adaptor?
