You can install them the same way as all other hard drives to your laptop. You can put the CD into your laptop and install it or you can put in the USB cord and install it like that.

How long are cheap external hard drives designed to last?

Cheap external hard drives are designed to last around 3 years, but the life span varies greatly on how often it is used, and how well it is taken care of. If the hard drive is used infrequently and is powered down when not in use, it can easily last 5+ years. If the hard drive is used frequently, kept in less than ideal conditions (wet, cold, hot, etc.) then it might not even last a year.
