USB Harddrives

What is your opinnion on external USB Harddrives. Are they good for playing games og storage only??

I run a few apps off my thumbdrive which is USB 2.0, they seem to work fine. I dont know how much harddrive access a game would produce, but i assume it isnt all that much. I have a 2gb USB hard drive as well, i just use it as storage and on occasion is use it as a web server. It works just fine. (At least as USB 2)

thanks ;)

I have heard though that some games use the harddrive alot... And also with my own knowledge I have figured that.

Alacritous

I'd say it would be alright as long as it is USB 2.0 and not 1.1.

I heard you can boot from USB now if you have the option in the bios ,how true is that ?

I believe that as long as the BIOS supports it, yes it's entirely possible :)
